MacKeeper is a utility software for macOS that offers security, privacy, and performance optimization features. MacKeeper was first released in 2010, developed by ZeoBIT, later acquired by Kromtech, and is currently owned by Clario Tech, a security software development company.
MacKeeper had a troubled and litigious history under previous ownership. Zeobit settled a class action lawsuit over deceptive advertising and misleading claims, and Kromtech unsuccessfully sued MacKeeper critics. Some versions were difficult to uninstall, and flagged as undesirable by antivirus programs.
