Great app but there is an issue.

I use this all the time and really like the interface and features. Unfortunatley, it seems to have developed a bug. I find since moving to an M1 mac that it is using near 100% CPU all the time. I thought this would get fixed quickly, but it has been a while and it is still there. Is it possible to get this corrected? I am running the most recent version from the app store.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your report. The CPU issue has been fixed in the latest version.

Works great but I have a question...

Hi-I love this app and it is simple and does the job well and I have had it long time.

My question is: up until a few days ago when I plugged in my Time Machine external drive to run overnight, in the morning I would need to eject it before I unplugged it. Now every morning that drive no longer is connected so I don't need to eject it. My concern is that the Time Machine backups aren't running all night. I don't know when the app ejects that drive or why it ejects it.

Is this a bug or ???? Thank you. Like I said I like the app.

Two great features

The notifications when a disk/thumbstick is mounted or unmounted are great. MacOS can have a notable lag between when you physically initiate an action (plug something in, or press "eject") and when the device becomes available (to work with, or to physically remove); this app's notifications tells you when something has actually happened so that you can actually proceed. Extremely useful.

On my space-starved laptop, it's very useful to always see the amount of fee disk presented in the menubar.

5 stars for usefulness.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for writing for FreeSpace. It is an indispensable app written for myself and I use it everyday in every of my Mac. I am so happy that many users like it as much as I do!
