В помойку **Developer response:** Понимаем ваше разочарование и приносим извинения за неудобства. Удаление выбранных файлов относится к расширенным функциям и требует подписки — сожалеем, что это было недостаточно понятно сразу. Спасибо за обратную связь, мы учтём её. ### 1/5 — Complaint *2025-12-29, version 8.2.7* Paid for a subscription but didn’t help me, and was extremely disappointing. ### 1/5 — C’est que je ne trouvais pas ça normal *2025-07-30* Je trouve ça menteur car sur le pub on dit gratuit arrivé sur l’application payant ### 1/5 — Responde *2025-05-30, version 8.1.1* Me cobran y dice que son 3 dos gratis ### 1/5 — Publicité mensongère *2025-05-14* La publicité disait que c’était gratuit ….

So I thought I’d give this one a shot, my iPhone keeps telling me I’m running out of space so I check my storage, I still have a bit of room. But anyway I thought I’d give this program a shot, it ran did it’s thing. I went back and checked everything, was exactly the same in my phone. Didn’t free up nothing, so don’t waste your money **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about your experience. Darksy Cleaner is designed to optimize your device and free up space by removing duplicate files, large videos, and unnecessary data. If no changes were seen, it’s possible that the app didn’t find files eligible for deletion or optimization. We’d like to help you resolve this. Please reach out to us at help@darksycleaner.space, and we’ll assist you further to ensure the app works as intended for you. ### 1/5 — Triste *2024-10-12* Difficile à gérer j’ai voulu compresser mes photos du coup tout est mélangé et je n’ai plus aucune date de création 😘 **Developer response:** Nous comprenons votre frustration. Lors de la compression, de nouveaux fichiers sont créés, et ils prennent la date de création actuelle. Nous allons travailler pour améliorer cette fonctionnalité et essayer de conserver la date de création du fichier original à l'avenir. Merci pour votre patience et votre retour ! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bine *2025-11-24, version 8.2.6* Super ### 5/5 — Darsky review *2025-06-07, version 8.1.2* It seems to do what it claims.
