User reviews
Clean Master is praised for its ease of use, effective cache cleaning, and being a free, essential tool for many users. However, multiple reviews raise privacy concerns due to tracking and external server communication. Users also report high CPU usage, misleading cache clearing timing, and intrusive pop-ups. Overall, while it serves its primary function well, issues related to privacy and user experience are notable.

This extension itself claims to aim for security yet is tracking you through cookies and your behavior across the internet as you use it. Please take the time to read the privacy policy before you continue with your usage of this application. Its privacy policy is antithetical to its very purpose. If you want to manually clear your cache you can do so in your browser's settings.
