Back to StorageRadar

Download the Direct build when you need broader access for advanced cleanup workflows.

The App Store remains the standard public path for most users. The Direct build is an alternative install path for advanced workflows that can require broader macOS access. It is not a separate web checkout today.

Choose the right path

The two distribution paths are intentionally not presented as equal storefronts. One is the main public commerce path; the other is an advanced-access build.

App Store

  • Standard install path for most users.
  • Current public pricing and purchase flow live here.
  • Best default choice if you do not specifically need broader cleanup access.

Direct build

  • Alternative install path for advanced cleanup and uninstall workflows.
  • Download is handled by the site, but paid unlock does not happen on the site.
  • If you already bought StorageRadar on the App Store, you can unlock Direct at no extra cost inside the app.

How Direct unlock works today

Unlock happens inside the Direct app. The site only distributes the DMG and explains the current flow.

1

Buy StorageRadar on the App Store if you do not already own it

Today, the App Store remains the primary public commerce path. The Direct build is not a separate web checkout yet.

2

Sign in on this Mac with the Apple ID that bought StorageRadar

The Direct app checks the purchase from this Mac through StoreKit. You do not sign in on the website.

3

Open the Direct build and press "I purchased in App Store"

The Direct app reads your App Store purchase, sends the original transaction ID to the backend, and requests a Direct license.

4

Use the Direct build with broader access

If the purchase verifies successfully, the backend issues the Direct license and the app unlocks on this Mac.

What the Direct build does not do today

  • It does not ask you to sign in on the website.
  • It does not verify your Apple purchase from the browser.
  • It does not provide a separate direct web checkout today.
  • It does not replace the App Store as the primary public commerce path yet.

Download and next steps

If you already bought StorageRadar on the App Store, the next step after download is inside the app: sign in on this Mac with the Apple ID that bought StorageRadar, then press "I purchased in App Store".
