TrashEye

TrashEye is a handy tool for Mac users who want easier access to their Trash. You know how we usually click on the Trash icon in the Dock to delete files or retrieve stuff? Well, sometimes keeping that Dock hidden is a good idea, especially on smaller screens. But it can make things tricky when you need to get to your deleted items without breaking your flow.

Access Your Trash Easily

This is where TrashEye steps in! It moves the Trash icon right onto your desktop. This means you can simply drag and drop files into it, just like you normally would. Plus, accessing the contents of your trash and emptying it is super easy now! And guess what? It even has a file counter that shows you how many items are in there at all times!

A Familiar Setup for Windows Users

If you've used Windows before, having the trash can on your desktop isn’t anything new. In fact, TrashEye's setup works almost like the regular Dock icon you're used to. It's always visible above other windows, which makes it easy to spot.

Customizing Your Experience

The best part? By default, it's also visible when you're in full-screen mode! Although if you find that distracting, you might want to turn that off.

Keep Track of What's Inside Your Trash

This app really aims to make macOS better by showing how many items are sitting in the trash at any moment. While some folks will love this extra info, others might find that big badge kind of distracting since it can't be resized or turned off.

Move It Around!

You can move the icon anywhere on your desktop using its context menu. Want a quick way to open the trash folder? No problem—you can set up a hotkey for that! There’s also an option to hide the menu bar icon if that's more your style.

Looking Forward to More Features

A few more personalization options for that file counter badge would be awesome since it stands out quite a bit on your desktop. Overall though, TrashEye works great and we’re excited to see how it improves as it gets closer to its official launch!
