Uninstall Applite on Mac

Keep the list of casks you installed through Applite before removing its interface. Those apps and the Homebrew installation are independent of Applite.app. The September 19, 2026 record covers the app copied from the official package.

Quit and remove the app

Quit Applite and move Applite.app to Trash. Do not remove the apps it installed, Homebrew’s Caskroom, or a shared Homebrew prefix. The official page has more product information.

Review the app’s data

The cask lists ~/Library/Application Support/Applite, exact bundle-ID support, cache, container and preferences. The display-name support folder may hold Applite’s casks.sqlite inventory, so inspect it before deleting.

If you installed it with Homebrew

The Homebrew cask has its own --zap list. brew uninstall --cask applite removes the cask without that list; brew uninstall --cask --zap applite also acts on its listed data without consulting Mole’s checkboxes. Zap includes that inventory folder, so keep a copy if you rely on it. Mole also suppresses zap if its list would cross an unchecked, shared, unknown, or unsupported path; selected remnants still follow Mole’s own deletion path.

brew uninstall --cask applite

Check the result

These commands inspect the running process and one relevant location. They do not remove anything:

pgrep -il "Applite"
ls -ld "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Applite"

No pgrep match means no process with that name is running; a match needs identification before quitting anything. A listed path still exists, while an ls “No such file” error means only that exact path is absent. A permission error is inconclusive.

What Mole lists

Mole lists Application Support/Applite for review and leaves it unchecked. Exact bundle-ID cache, container and preference rows are selected by default when owned; installed casks remain separate.

What this test covered

The September 19, 2026 official-package test used Applite 1.4.2. Its display-name Application Support folder, including casks.sqlite, was not selected; no installed casks were uninstalled by that test.
