Maybe @ a future time the price will drop. A weekly charge should b charged 2 monthly and I might try it out again. AI is not a good thing. It’s bad 4 the environment and the people living around the database centers. I would b open 2 maybe paying. @ this point I don’t know if it works as well as they claim. I don’t trust the developer. Can’t b too careful ### 1/5 — Lying *2026-06-21, version 1.8.6* All of these apps say FREE AND THEY ARE NOT FREE ### 4/5 — Cleaner Pro *2026-06-18, version 1.8.6* I don’t know yet ### 1/5 — Not worth the money *2026-06-18, version 1.8.6* An app like this should have more free features or it should disclose that it is a paid app ### 1/5 — Extremely expensive *2026-06-17, version 1.8.6* At $29.99 dollars a week it is probably the most expensive app in the Apple app world. Sadly it doesn’t work it spent 30 minutes examining my email and came back with nothing. You want to try additional features it’s an extra 9.99 a week for data leak protection. Differently not for my I can’t afford $1549 dollars a year on an app. I guess some people could justify this for deleting duplicate photos. Sadly differently out of my price range. Every 15 months you could buy a new iPhone pro at this price ### 1/5 — SCAM - Tries to trick you into Buying stay away *2026-06-14, version 1.8.6* App keeps the purchase and continue button towards the bottom of the screen so you can’t swipe up and leave it. Stay away. ### 1/5 — Not at all AI based *2026-06-09, version 1.8.6* My phone has only 256 GB storage and the app suggested to clean 326 GB and then it wanted to delete all my videos at once ### 1/5 — Bosco *2026-06-08, version 1.8.6* Nothing happened ### 1/5 — Rip off *2026-06-07, version 1.8.5* When you sign up it says 79 cents for one week and 100% refund. instead, they charged me $6.99 and I can’t get a refund. ### 1/5 — Garbage app not free at all *2026-06-06, version 1.8.5* This app is garbage, not free at all. Don’t recommend at all. Stay away!! ### 1/5 — Scam!! Not free at all *2026-06-04, version 1.8.4* Advertised as 100% free, which is an Albo lie!! As soon as you open it , you are expected to sign up for a paid subscription! ABSOLUTELY FALSE ADVERTISING!! Don’t give me your standard scripted response that does not address this concern, that I have seen on every negative review! How about you answer to why you advertise a free service, that is not free!! 😡 ### 1/5 — Lied on ad and said it was free *2026-05-31, version 1.8.4* This is definitely not free. The first the they do is ask you for money. So the first thing I did was delete it. I don’t trust an app that starts off lying and deceiving me before I even use it. Definitely a scam. Do not download! ### 1/5 — GARBAGE *2026-05-31, version 1.8.4* I’d give this 0 stars if I could, you can’t use it unless you subscribe, it’s just another money grabbing dirt bag scam ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unauthorized deletion *2026-08-18, version 1.8.6* This app deleted many important photos that I did not authorize. When communicating with the app to try and recover these photos, my requests for assistance are ignored. ### 1/5 — Mode d’emploi *2026-08-12, version 1.8.6* Facile de sélectionner des photos mais comment les éliminer J’ai pas trouvé ### 1/5 — Break the bank 4 nothing *2026-07-27, version 1.8.6* Very costly and I wasn’t impressed and like another user I feel this is a scam 2 trap users in2 a subscription whom fail 2 read the terms of the subscription. Maybe @ a future time the price will drop. A weekly charge should b charged 2 monthly and I might try it out again. AI is not a good thing. It’s bad 4 the environment and the people living around the database centers. I would b open 2 maybe paying. @ this point I don’t know if it works as well as they claim. I don’t trust the developer. Can’t b too careful. U really need 2 zoom in so u can easily get more specific information ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-07-24, version 1.8.6* Your ads popup and last way to long! For this reason I WOULD NEVER ever get this app! ### 1/5 — scammers!!! *2026-07-20, version 1.8.6* Do not download this app. I was charged twice after cancelling my subscription. And have since asked for a refund since they advertise getting a refund if unpleased with services I’ve heard nothing from them since. They have stolen $90 from me!!! ### 1/5 — AI CLEANER *2026-07-17, version 1.8.6* I don’t want this app do WUIT TRYING to Push it down my Throat ### 1/5 — CleanKit *2026-07-11, version 1.8.6* Leave me alone I do not want to here from you no more ### 1/5 — Money *2026-07-11, version 1.8.6* Wanted more money ### 1/5 — It’s NOT FREE *2026-07-08, version 1.8.6* Shame on Apple ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2026-07-08, version 1.8.6* The “free” option is very cumbersome to implement. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — All items *2026-08-11, version 1.8.6* Trustworthy ### 5/5 — me *2026-07-23, version 1.8.6* Good ### 5/5 — Openly a scam *2026-07-22, version 1.8.6* Looking it over and reading the comments I see you get nothing free if it clears the clutter etc and gives you more space then why wouldn’t once be enough to last for awhile and why would you need to have weekly? What would a free scan do? Just doesn’t present it self in a manner that makes it worth more. ### 5/5 — New *2026-07-20, version 1.8.6* Trying for the first time ### 5/5 — Cleaner Pro *2026-05-14, version 1.8.3* Love Ai Cleaner ### 5/5 — It works] *2026-05-08, version 1.8.2* Aiye Captain, I think she works. ### 5/5 — TOP *2026-04-21* Tops **Developer response:** Hi there 🌿✨ Thank you so much! 💚 Love hearing that you think it’s TOP 😊📱 AI CleanKit is all about making your phone feel clean, fast, and effortless to manage—glad it’s working great for you ✨ ### 5/5 — Review *2026-04-20, version 1.8.1* Great ### 5/5 — AI *2026-04-10, version 1.8.0* I love my ai !!! ### 5/5 — Clean *2026-04-05, version 1.7.9* Why is it asking me to clean again?
