Browser Care

Browser Care is the perfect companion for your Internet browser.

Any time you browse the Internet, your computer saves files. Temporary files of pictures, text and cookies are saved on your computer consuming valuable resources. Removal of these types of files may help improve your computer’s performance and overall speed. Over the past few weeks on MacSources, we have reviewed several utility apps that can help with the general care and maintanence of your computer to keep it running smoothly and efficiently. Today, we are proud to bring you a review of a product that does the same for your browser – Browser Care. Download super taxi driver.

Browser Care is a Mac utility that helps you to remove unwanted files that accumulate on your system from Internet browsing. It completes a multitude of functions including: deleting history, deleting the cache, removing all website data, emptying the download list, deleting the last session, deleting web page icons, reseting top sites, deleting autofill text, deleting alert position and reseting the browser’s preferences.

To start, Browser Care automatically detects the browsers you have installed on your system. For me, I have Safari, Firefox and Chrome. Each browser has different care options to choose from (the ones indicated above were available for Safari). The app comes with presets – Basic, Complete and Custom. The Basic option has a few of the functions checked – for Safari it’s Delete History, Delete Cache and Empty Download List. The Complete preset has all the functions selected and the Custom preset allows the user to determine what is best for his or her system and save it to reuse. Once you have selected your preset, you click the “care” button at the bottom of the screen and Browser Care completes the functions selected. Prior to completing the care for the browser, the app shows you what the total amount of space is that will be freed up by deleting the selected files.

There is a history function within the app that shows you when care was administered (date/time) and what browser was cared for. I hope in future versions, we might also see a total amount of file space that was cleared during that care session.

But a browser upstart is taking the setup and fiddling out of the process and offering a browser that goes all-in on guarding you and your information. Read more: The best web hosting providers.

I like this app for a number of reasons. First, it’s taking something I already do, but simplifying it. I will clear my downloads folder, delete history and clear my cache, but I do it all manually – piece by piece. That takes time. Browser Care simplifies this process down to just a few clicks – Open app. Select preset. Click ‘care’. Done. It’s that easy. Another reason I like it because it includes a menu bar icon. The icon is only available while the app is open, but it’s an easy way to open the Browser Care window without taking much time. Browser Care also has a notification feature to alert you when you should clear unwanted files.

This app is currently on sale in the Mac App Store for $1.99 (regular price $3.99). The developer, Giovanni Maria Cusaro, is working on version 2.0 (Browser Care is currently 1.1), which should be released in September.

Browser Care Portable

This App only does Safari for free. If you want it for your other browsers, it costs $9. It does nothing that several actually free Apps do. So what it seems you are really paying for is that it does it automatically instead of having to launch the App. As previously pointed out, some of the stuff it does most users do not really want it to do. In particular the last thing I want it to remove are my autofill settings. We could be talking your contact info, password and credit card info here. This may be fine for a public computer but on a personal machine, I want that stuff, which often takes significant time to set up, present to speed up use of web sites, remember my passwords for certain one and fill in my address and purchase information when buying stuff. Not only that, I am of the opinion that such maintenance only needs to be done on an occasional bases, so that launching it manually to do this is fine for me. Additionally many of the other maintenance tools that do this also can clean up your entire system as well. So for me, the routine is that every few weeks I launch such an app, select what I want done, and take a short break while it does its thing. When done, I just reboot my Mac and I am set for several more weeks.
