# Ramback

> Get your RAM back from the dev tools you forgot

## About Ramback

Activity Monitor tells you something is using your memory. It doesn't tell you it's yesterday's simulator.

Ramback lives in the menu bar and lists your dev stack as things, not processes: iOS simulators (Xcode Previews too), Android emulators, Gradle and Kotlin daemons, Docker, OrbStack and Colima containers, Metro and other bundlers, dev servers, tunnels, local databases, and AI coding agents with the servers they started. Each row shows its RAM, who started it and how long it has been idle.

Stop one, or everything at once with Clean slate. Each thing stops the way its own tool would: simctl shutdown, adb emu kill, docker stop, or SIGTERM to the process tree. Databases stop only after you confirm; pinned rows and builds are skipped.

A CLI and an MCP server ship inside the app, so coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex can check what's running before they boot another emulator and stop the servers they started. They can't stop your database, your pins, a build or another agent's servers.

Free, with no account. Pro, $19 once, adds memory pressure warnings, rules with Undo and disk cleanup.

It's built for iOS, Android, React Native and Flutter developers on a Mac, where a simulator, an emulator and a few Gradle daemons can fill 16 GB before lunch. Everything runs locally; process names, paths and projects never leave your Mac.
