Levo help · Using Levo

Auto mode

Auto mode keeps free space above a limit you choose by cleaning on its own, with no click. It's off until you turn it on.

How it works

When free space falls below your limit, Levo cleans the groups you chose from what it has already found and checked. Then it posts a notification, "Auto mode freed 12 GB", with what was cleaned and the space now free. It doesn't clean again until the minimum time has passed, and it skips a clean that would free too little.

Turn it on

  1. Open Settings › Auto mode.
  2. Click to turn it on. A sheet asks "Let Levo clean on its own?"
  3. Read it, tick that you understand Auto mode deletes without asking and that Levo isn't responsible for deleted files, and press Turn on.

What it never does

The licence

Auto mode needs the licence, which covers 2 Macs. See Licence.

Turn it off

Switch it off in Settings › Auto mode at any time. Your agent can turn it off too, with Levo's command line, but never on.

Review what Auto mode would take before you rely on it. What it removes can't be restored.
