CleanMyMac should be able to clean duplicates as well

I use CMM regularly to maintain my Mac in shape. CleanMyMac has a lot of useful features, but I would love to add the possibility to accurately remove duplicate files, for example duplicate pictures or music files in my MacOS.

CMM should be able to clean browsing data too

It needs to be able to clean my browsing history and all those temp files and cookies in browsers, not only development junk and languages.

Scheduled scans support

I want to schedule custom scans, so I don't need to worry about cleaning my mac every week. Keep the good job and I hope to see this feature soon.

Disk defragmentation in CleanMyMac

I would really like to have CleanMyMac do a defrag and compact so I can throw away an inferior product that does this without the elegance of CMM.

CleanMyMac doesn't clean external drives

I have most apps and datas on an non-default location (extern usb-HD), CMM doesn't find them. It would be nice to add custom search folders.

Plugin for visualizing scan results

Maybe you will create some sort of a plugin to visualize the data on your drives. It would help manage your files. Not a "cleaning" feature, but still would be great.

Add search for files with similar content

Nice if you could find duplicates, irrespective of their file names, but by content matching. Then offer the user to select one of them as the master, wherever it resides, and replace all the other copies, in place, with a symbolic link to that master. All that in a user friendly way of course :-)

File compression feature in CMM

Snow Leo has an internal file compression feature. Probably, you'll be able to make CleanMyMac use it as well, I've already seen some apps that support this.
