## What is Cloud Media Shrinker?

Find the photos and videos taking up space, preview them, and choose what to keep, what to shrink, and what to delete.

Scan for free and try three compressions on each device. Unlock unlimited compression with a one-time purchase that covers iPhone, iPad and Mac. No subscription. Measuring, reviewing, Keep and Delete stay free.

Review your Apple Photos library and supported folders you choose in Files. See the largest items first, preview photos and videos, and use Balanced, Max Savings or Keep 4K presets to make smaller copies. Review one item at a time or use Auto pick to select a batch.

You choose whether to keep or delete originals. Undo a compression by removing its smaller copy while the original is still available. See your local savings history and open finished copies to check the result.

If iOS pauses compression when you leave the app, unfinished work is kept in the queue. The app can ask iOS to finish later when the device is available. Background processing is controlled by iOS and is not guaranteed.

Media processing happens on your device. Your library is not uploaded to the developer. Optional support reports let you review diagnostics before sending. Keeps and savings history stay on each device and do not sync with the Mac.

Google Drive compression is available in the Mac app, not on iPhone or iPad. Compression is lossy and results vary. Photos deletions go to Recently Deleted; folder deletions go to the Trash. Cloud storage may not be reclaimed until originals are permanently removed.

### 5/5 — Clean and easy way to recover space

*2026-11-07*

There are a hundred apps out there that say that can help you recover disk space. But this one is the most clean and straightforward I’ve seen.  Gives 3 options on how to shrink files and clearly explains what it will do. Any deleted original goes in the 30 day recovery bin in case you change your mind.  I was able to recover almost 100GB of space of digital clutter!

### 5/5 — A much easier way to free up space

*2026-11-07*

Really like being able to see which photos and videos are eating up the most space before deciding what to do with them. I especially appreciate being able to check the smaller copy first so I never feel like I’m deleting the original blindly.
