There is no built-in app uninstaller on macOS. To uninstall apps on Mac, you can move it to trash from the Applications folder, delete it from Launchpad, use the app’s built-in uninstaller, or use third-party app uninstaller for Mac.
However, if you choose the first three methods to uninstall apps on a Mac, the files generated while you using the uninstalled app remain on your Mac and occupy the disk space, you need to manually find them and delete them, it is time- and effort-consuming. Thus, it is recommended to choose a third-party uninstaller that can delete the app and remove the leftover files together, just like CleanMyApp.

Besides, you can also choose the third-party app uninstaller, which can automatically collects the generated files and delete them with the app together.
