Smart Mac Booster

Posted: March 28, 2019

The Smart Mac Booster software suite boasts a broad range of features that are meant to provide its users with the ability to clean up their disks, uninstall applications, manage files, and control various system and Internet settings easily. However, users who opt to install the Smart Mac Booster might quickly find out that these features are locked behind a paywall, and they must obtain a full software license to take advantage of the Smart Mac Booster’s abilities. The free version of the Smart Mac Booster is available for download from the official website of the tool, but it only serves as a system scanner that generates a lengthy report with all the recommended file removals, fixes, and other optimizations that are meant to enhance the computer’s health and performance.

The Smart Mac Booster is not considered to be a major issue, and the worst it could do is to annoy its users by displaying notifications and alerts that there are issues that are waiting to be fixed, therefore urging the user to pay for the full version of the product. We would not couinsel you to pay for the Smart Mac Booster because these Mac optimizers often exaggerate their abilities to make them seem like a worthwhile purchase when, in reality, they do not bring much to the table.

Another reason to avoid giving money to the Smart Mac Booster’s publisher is that this software suite is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) and many Mac security scanners will recommend its removal. While the uninstallation of the Smart Mac Booster is not mandatory, it is the recommended course of action if you do not want to use this tool or if you are not willing to pay for it.
