# What is the Apps window in Storage Studio?

The Apps window is one place to see every application on your Mac and on your fast drive, open any of them, and free up space by moving, offloading or uninstalling the ones you choose. You never need the Terminal.

It has four tabs — **All Apps**, **Internal**, **Moved** and **Offloaded** — and every app on the Internal tab carries a safety badge so you know before you act whether it will move cleanly.

See [the Apps window section of the manual](https://storagestudio.us/manual/apps) for a full tour, or [what the tabs are for](https://storagestudio.us/faq/apps/what-are-the-tabs-in-the-apps-window).
