+SD Maid v2: Android System Cleaning App Goes Open-Source
+======
+
+SD Maid app is now getting revamped for its v2 as an open-source project.
+

+

+
+SD Maid is a decently popular system cleaning tool for Android devices.
+
+The app is free to get started but offers a “pro” version of it to unlock additional features for enhanced cleaning.
+
+It helps you find discarded apps, cache files, duplicates, and abandoned files. You can also optimize the database with it. I have been using it for my Android devices, and it works like a charm. It cleans junk without hassle and makes things tidy.
+
+However, it also included some additional features which are no longer useful for newer Android devices.
+
+Hence, the developer decided to make something **simpler and faster, tuned better for newer Android versions.**
+
+### SD Maid 2
+
+![sd maid 2][3]
+
+[SD Maid 2][4] or SD Maid SE is the successor of SD Maid app as an open-source project.
+
+> 🚧 The app is in active development and in its early phases. Expect changes and features to be added.
+
+The original SD Maid app was planned to be open-source, but was not.
+
+So, the developer took an open-source approach for its successor, which is a good thing.
+
+The key highlights of the new app are:
+
+- **Faster performance**
+- **Tailored for new Android versions**
+- **New UI with themes**
+- **Simpler approach to usability**
+- **New features and updates can be expected with Android upgrades**
+
+And, with the successor taking over, the original SD Maid app will go into maintenance mode, meaning it will only receive important fixes/security updates to keep things running for existing users.
+
+> 📢 Even if you are an existing SD Maid Pro user, you have to purchase a separate license for SD Maid 2 “Pro” to support the project. It is a one-time fee.
+
+In case you are not aware of its features, you can expect SD Maid 2 to help you with:
+
+- Removing data that belongs to apps that are no longer installed (**CorpseFinder**)
+- Deleting expendable files, e.g. caches (**AppCleaner**)
+- User configurable filters for random files (**SystemCleaner**)
+- Scheduling actions (**Scheduler**)
+- Controling/disabling apps (**AppControl**)
+
+📥 You can download the app now from the **[Google Play Store][4], [GitHub][5], and [F-Droid][6].**
