If you have used Little Snitch and realized it's not for you, or if you're receiving a lot of notifications and don't want to use it any longer, it's time to uninstall Little Snitch Mac.

For macOS, Little Snitch is a host-based app firewall. It's a program that allows you to keep track of your Mac's outgoing network connections. When Little Snitch finds an outbound connection, it notifies you and starts asking if you agree to accept it. You may design rules that enable some connections always to be permitted and others always to be denied.

You may also opt to ignore notifications and have Little Snitch save them so you can handle all of them and at once when you're not busy. It's a splendid way to secure your Mac against attacks, but most users will find it too difficult to use.

But once you've concluded you don't want to use an application any longer, ta bort den från din Mac to free up some Mac's space. There are three options for doing so: using the application uninstaller, a totally manual technique, or a relatively easy automated approach that we'll explain later in the article.
