## What is Cleanova?

Running out of space on your iPhone? Cleanova finds duplicate and similar photos, screenshots and videos, compresses large videos and shows what takes up your storage. You see everything that is selected and confirm before anything is deleted.

CLEAN UP
• Storage summary: how much space you can free up, and a cleanup history of what Cleanova has already freed
• Duplicates and similar photos, videos and screenshots, grouped side by side or all at once in Smart Clean: extra copies are preselected, the best shot in each group is kept
• Swipe: photos and videos one at a time, by month or in the On this day, Screenshots and Random sets. Left marks for deletion, right keeps. Nothing is deleted until you confirm at the end, and you pick up where you left off
• Screenshots, selfies, large, short and recent videos, screen recordings and blurry photos
• Photo categories sorted on your device: people, nature, food, animals, documents, QR and barcodes, bursts, Live Photos, low-quality shots and more
• Duplicate contacts: contacts with the same phone number, even written differently, are grouped; one in each group always stays
• Protected from deletion: photos and videos you mark no longer appear in scan results

COMPRESS
• Videos to HEVC: one with a choice of quality, or several at once; the copy keeps the original date
• Live Photos to still photos
• When you open a video stored only in iCloud, Cleanova offers to download it before compressing
• Compress All: large videos, JPEG photos (to HEIC at full size) and Live Photos in one run, with the date, location and albums carried over. You see how much space it frees before you start; on iOS 26 and later it can keep running when you leave the app
• Originals are deleted only after you confirm, or you keep both

MONITOR
• Memory, CPU, storage, battery and charging, thermal state, network type, local IP address and traffic, updated live, plus the device model and iOS version
• Start Smart Clean right from the Monitor

YOU STAY IN CONTROL
• Before deleting, you see how many items are selected and how much space they take
• Deleted photos and videos stay in Recently Deleted in Photos for 30 days, so you can restore them. The space is freed when you empty that album, and Cleanova can remind you
• Photos, videos and contacts are analyzed on your iPhone and are not uploaded

SETTINGS
Language, subscription and Restore Purchases, Clear Cache, Swipe reset, Rate Us and Contact Us, plus your choices: cleanup reminders, offers, analytics, tracking status and a data deletion request.
