Clean Text
Clean Text is a macOS text-cleaning and editing app that fixes formatting, transforms copied text, and helps prepare writing for reuse or publication.
What is Clean Text?
Clean Text is a productivity app for macOS that helps users clean up, reformat, and improve text before reusing it in documents, emails, notes, websites, or other apps. It is built for people who regularly work with copied or drafted text, including writers, students, developers, editors, and content creators. The app focuses on common text problems such as extra spaces, broken line breaks, empty lines, inconsistent quotation marks, and unwanted characters that often appear after copying from web pages, PDFs, chats, or documents. It also includes tools for case conversion, formatting changes, reusable cleanup tasks, and AI-assisted editing features for rewriting, summarizing, and restructuring text. Clean Text integrates with typical Mac workflows through clipboard tools, sharing features, and macOS services, making it useful for fast cleanup without rebuilding content by hand. Published by Apimac, it is designed as a native Mac writing helper for everyday text-processing work.

If you use AI features, review sensitive text before processing it and keep the app updated so you receive privacy and stability improvements.
