What apps to use to clean up MacBook Pro

I've had my MacBook (16-inch 2019) for 2+ years. I'm not having any problems but thought it might be time to do some cleaning.


What apps or software should I use?


Thanks!

MacBook Pro (2017 – 2020)

None


Any Third Party Applications that will interfere with the normal operation of the OS,  is an invitation for disaster. 


Certain Applications maybe available on the Apple Apps Store - this only means the Developer is prepared to pay Apple a portion on each sale. What the Application may do to the computer is up to the User to check this out before purchase


Any of the below should be removed as per Developers Instructions 


1 - Disk Cleaner 


This will include CleanMyMac , aka “ BrickMyMac “


MacKeeper,


Dr Cleaner Pro Plus


Open Cleaner one Pro
