Macbook Air \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Ezio Auditore_09 (Poland) – Version 1.1 – 25 May 2016
\nGreat app to delate, destroy junk files from the recycle bin.
\n<\/p>\n

Great app \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby trayNTP (United States) – Version 1.1 – 22 May 2016
\nTo gauge progress, I recommend watching both the numerical countdown on the app\u2019s icon AND the file size displayed in Finder for each individual file. It\u2019s very satisfying to see a 500MB file, for example, shrink down to 400, 300, 200, 50MB, before it vanishes. Without a progress bar built into the app, that\u2019s the best way to do it to satisfy your need to know if the app is actually performing, and how fast.

It seems to work – Worth the price \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby DonnaDiane (United States) – Version 1.1 – 14 May 2016
\nIt is easy to use and setup. I assume it\u2019s doing what it says, theres no way to tell or even a little notice that the file was erased. I think it would \u201cfeel\u201d more substantial if there was some animation that could be turned on.
\n<\/p>\n

Fast and efficient \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby sethfromgb (United Kingdom) – Version 1.1 – 26 April 2016
\nHave tried several file shredders. This one is easy and fast to use (simply drag files or folder over icon).

\nAll I can say is it seems to work great. It\u2019s an app that I\u2019m sure is needed by most every one at such an affordable price!

Excellent app for deleting files! \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Eddie B68 (United States) – Version 1.1 – 11 April 2016
\nI don\u2019t write many reviews but felt compelled to given how much use I have gotten out of this excellent app. The app is very simple and does exactly what it says. It is an essential app that I always make sure I have installed. If you want a more secure means to delete sensitive data then this app is for you.
\n<\/p>\n

Wonderful, but please remove App Store Log in for USB Drive Useage \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Iamautocrat (United States) – Version 1.1 – 19 March 2016
\nFor what the application does, this application does it very well. I really recommend secure shredding files, though.
\nOne suggestion I would add, though – Devs, make this app USB-useage without having to log in to the App Store. Annoying to have to log in every time I want to use it on another mac computer for personal use.
\n[ VT: Sorry, the log-in prompt is required for anti-piracy whenever running on a new computer. ]
\n<\/p>\n

Brilliant. \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Mewie47 (United Kingdom) – Version 1.1 – 10 March 2016
\nTried many different kinds of apps for gettting rid of my unwanted files permantely , and this one is the best by a very long run.
\nWas so glad to find it, would recommend it to anyone.

You Can Buy This App Without Any Doubts. \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Nuserpentus (United States) – Version 1.1 – 5 March 2016
\nI had doubts, but I did read quite a few reviews here in the app store and elsewhere. I then took a chance on it, and I\u2019ve been nothing but VERY satisfied with it. No glitches. No hangups. No bugs. No downsides whatsoever. It\u2019s a splendidly elegant gadget which functions like a precision timepiece. VERY worth the price. You won\u2019t regret the purchase.
\n<\/p>\n

Works Great \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Ol Mukie (United States) – Version 1.1 – 23 February 2016
\nI did a little research before downloading this App. Reviews were good, so I\u2019ve given it a try. It works just fine and seems to be fairly fast.

SUPER FILE ERASER!!!!!!!!!!!! \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby Jettleggs (United States) – Version 1.1 – 7 February 2016
\nThis app has all of the bells and whistles that you would expect of a superior file shredder. Have tried other products and found this app to be nothing but top level.
\nIf you are looking for secure file deletion this is THE APP for you. Does everything in the app description effortlessly and thoroughly. I have found no downside to
\nthis app, NO BUGS, NO PROBLEMS. VoidTech if I could give more than five stars, I would. This product is an absolute 5+ stars.

\nGot into a real problem with \u2018recovered files\u2019 clogging up my trash and causing it to stall and become usable. I wasted several hours trying to sort this problem.

Works Smoothly adn Quickly \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/strong>
\nby SeedeeWho (United States) – Version 1.1 – 25 November 2015
\nFileShredder works smoothly and conveniently. It shreds selected, or all, files from the folder where they are filed or from wastebasket. Works very quickly with my solid state drive. No complaints. It may be overkill on an encrypted drive, but I like knowing trashed financial files ate completely gone, even if someone gets hold of my computer account password. When I move a file to a backup drive and put that drive in the safe-deposit box, I want to know that is the only place it is at. I shred paper copies, why would I want to do otherwise with digital copies?

\nWorks like a champ in OS 10.10.4 – except after you right click on a file, Shred and Secure Shred are down the menue another step under Services. Possibility that is a function forced by Yosemite.

Most disappointing \u2605<\/strong>
\nby Gwgw45 (United Kingdom) – Version 1.1 – 15 October 2015
\nPurchased this as I had some files I could not delete from Trash can. This, from its description appeared to fit the bill. Well it was useless, and just threw up an Error “An unexpected error occurred deleting the file(s). Please check the file permissions and ensure that the file(s) are not read-only or locked\u201d Oh, an no the file was not read only or locked. Save your money, as this is not worth a place on my Mac even if it was free, let alone the cost I pad.
\n[ VT: Sounds like an OS bug, please contact us so we can help investigate. ]

\nI unwittingly moved a Time Machine Backup into my Trash & found I couldn\u2019t delete it or anything else. This Folder containined over 400,000 folders & files and took up 69Mb of space.
\nI tried using the rm -rf command in Terminal but this didn\u2019t work and Apple Tech Support said the only way to remove it was to do a factory reset of my iMac.
\nBefore downloading this app I emailed the VoidTech Support Team who responded immediately & downloaded the app.
