... but like all such apps, it doesn't find them all. It can leave behind more than it deletes.
That is true, however, it will remove more than just dragging the app into the trash.
A good example is Garage Band that came on a lot of macs. I have no interest in making music, so I deleted it right away by dragging to the trash. Years later, I found a folder in application support that held 3 GBS of music samples for Garage Band.
My next mac, came with Garage Band, I dragged it onto some type of app cleaner (i don't recall which one, maybe appzapper, it saw the GarageBand audio samples and removed them.)
You can easily on a mac accumulate many files that are not needed, after upgrading OS versions, and app versions, there is a lot of trash left behind.
