Uninstall & zero residue

It's your device, so removing Work-mode should leave no trace. Here's how, and how to check.

Before you remove it

Switch to Personal first if you want your original setup back in place. Work-mode restores the settings it changed from the snapshot it took before it first touched them — wallpaper, pinned apps, folder locations, and so on. It never closes or deletes your apps or files.

Remove it — macOS

1. Click the Work-mode tray icon → Quit.
2. Open Applications and move Work-mode to the Trash.
3. That's it. To also clear its local settings and login item, remove:
   • its app-support folder in ~/Library/Application Support/(named for Work-mode), and
   • its login item under System Settings → General → Login Items (it will already be gone once the app is removed).

What "zero residue" means

Work-mode does not install kernel extensions, background daemons that survive removal, or system-wide agents on a personal install. Its footprint is: the app itself, a local settings database in your user Library, and a per-user login item so it can start with you. Remove those three and nothing of Work-mode remains.

Confirm nothing is left

• The app is gone from Applications.
• No Work-mode item in Login Items.
• No Work-mode folder under ~/Library/Application Support/.
• Your wallpaper, Dock, and folders are back to how you had them (if you switched to Personal first).
