Terms

Plain-English terms for MiniSpace. By buying or using the app you agree to them.

Last updated: 9 November 2026. Applies to MiniSpace 0.2.0.

Licence

You pay once ($9.99 USD) and receive a licence to use MiniSpace on Macs you own or control. There is no subscription. Gumroad emails a licence key with your receipt; the app asks for it once. Please do not resell, redistribute or re-upload the app.

Refunds

Sales are processed by Gumroad. If MiniSpace does not suit your Mac or workflow, request a refund within 14 days of purchase by replying to your Gumroad receipt. This policy does not reduce consumer rights that apply to your purchase.

Requirements

An Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or later) running macOS 12 or later. Intel Macs, Windows and Linux are not supported by this download. The release is tested on a current macOS version, not on every supported version. Please check these requirements before buying.

Ad-hoc signed, not notarized by Apple

MiniSpace 0.2.0 is ad-hoc signed. It is not signed with an Apple Developer ID and has not been notarized by Apple. On first launch macOS will show a warning that it cannot check the app for malicious software. That is expected and does not mean the file is damaged.

Before opening it, compare the SHA-256 checksum of the downloaded DMG with the one shown on the Gumroad page. If it differs, do not open the app. Then, if you trust the download:

  1. Drag MiniSpace into Applications and open it. When macOS blocks it, click Done.
  2. Open System Settings > Privacy & Security, scroll down, and choose Open Anyway next to MiniSpace. You only need to do this once. On some macOS versions, Control-clicking the app and choosing Open also works.

Opening it is your decision. You do not need to, and should not, turn off Gatekeeper or System Integrity Protection or run commands that strip security attributes from apps. I will never ask you to. If macOS does not offer a per-app override, stop and contact support. A Mac managed by an organisation may not allow this app to open at all, and I cannot promise it will open on every Mac.

Using the app safely

MiniSpace shows labels, confidence badges and explanations, but it cannot know what you still need. Review every selection before you confirm it. Moving to the Trash does not free space; Empty Trash inside the app is permanent, runs only after your confirmation and never on a schedule. Items already emptied from the Trash cannot be restored by the app. Keep a backup of anything important.

Some features need Full Disk Access under Privacy & Security. Granting it is your choice. Schedules are off until you create one and run only while the app is open.

No warranty

The app is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, I am not liable for lost data or other damages arising from its use. Size estimates are estimates; the space you actually recover can differ. A match in Verify a copy means content matched at that time and is not a guarantee of a complete backup.

Updates and support

There is no automatic updater. Updates are posted to the same Gumroad page. For installation help, reply to your Gumroad receipt or write to [email protected] with the app version, macOS version and the exact error message.

Third-party software

MiniSpace is built on open-source components. Their licence notices are included in the download and inside the app at MiniSpace.app/Contents/Resources/licenses/.
