Overview

Hazel is a powerful macOS app that automates file management to keep your system clutter-free. It monitors specified folders (e.g., Downloads, Desktop) and applies custom rules to files—like moving images to Photos, renaming docs by date, or deleting old items. Rules use criteria: type, name, date, size, or Finder tags. It integrates with Spotlight and runs scripts for advanced tasks. Perfect for professionals, students, or anyone drowning in unorganized files, Hazel eliminates manual sorting, saving time and keeping your Mac tidy.
