AppTrap

About

AppTrap is a free and open-source Mac utility, functioning as a PrefPane for System Preferences, designed to simplify application uninstallation through a drag-and-drop interface to the Trash. Its core feature is software uninstallation, with additional community features like suggesting and voting on features. Operating on Mac platforms, it provides a straightforward solution for users. While it was well-received by users, with many "likes" and positive mentions in reviews, some feedback indicates it faced compatibility issues, specifically ceasing to work effectively after the SnowLeopard upgrade, leading users to switch to alternatives like AppCleaner. It operates in the software uninstaller market, competing with tools such as Bulk Crap Uninstaller, Should I Remove It?, Elimisoft App Uninstaller, Omni Remover, and Auslogics Windows Slimmer. As a free, open-source tool, it does not have a traditional revenue model, and details on its leadership, founding history, or employee count are not publicly available, suggesting it may be a project by an individual or small development team.
