## What it is
SD Maid 2/SE is an open-source Android app for cleaning up storage, removing leftover data from uninstalled apps, deleting caches, and finding duplicate files. It is a Kotlin-based successor to SD Maid with root and Shizuku support.

## Use cases

## When to choose
- you need thorough storage maintenance on Android with root or Shizuku support
- you want an open-source, privacy-friendly cleaner without ads
- you need corpse finding, cache cleaning, deduplication, and storage analysis in one app

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose file manager for everyday file browsing
- you need a cleaner for iOS, Windows, or desktop platforms
- you expect a fully feature-complete tool, as development is ongoing
