### 3/5 — Good but one flaw

*2025-03-06, version 2.0.3*

I’m on the free tier where you get 100 pics a day, and the app starts on the most recent month and works backwards, but the problem is that if you have a month with over 100 photos you want to keep the app gets stuck on that month and every day it’s the same 100 pictures you swipe to keep and can’t seem to get past that.

### 4/5 — Good but has a tiny glitch

*2023-12-27, version 2.0.3*

It’s a good app and a fun way to go through your photos. But recently i noticed after you reach your limit of 100 the next day it makes you go through all the photos you already went through. This doesn’t happen all the time just sometimes.

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2023-11-06, version 2.0.3*

Cool idea but after a while it just shows the same photos over and over so I can’t delete any new ones. There should be a system where if a picture was swiped right on previously it shouldn’t be shown again the next time I go to delete photos.

### 2/5 — 100 a day free limit

*2023-09-20, version 2.0.3*

Limits to swiping through 100 photos a day for free. Most people have thousands of photos so this isn’t very useful.

### 2/5 — Can’t do much without purchasing premium

*2023-09-16, version 2.0.3*

If you have heaps of photos to go through don’t bother with this app. It’s great in theory but it only lets you delete like 30 or so photos per day unless you purchase the premium version.

### 2/5 — doesn't help clean out much

*2023-09-05, version 2.0.3*

100 free "flics" a day (actually only 50, and if you decided to keep some from the day before, it'll keep showing you the same photos every single day after, meaning you only clean up a couple photos a day.)

### 4/5 — question

*2023-08-28, version 2.0.3*

Is there a monthly fee? or just a one time purchase ?

### 2/5 — Won’t show new photos

*2022-12-15, version 2.0.3*

It works for the first few days but then just shows me the same photos everyday so I can’t delete any new ones

### 2/5 — The SS Ghost Ship

*2022-11-24, version 2.0.3*

I couldn't figure out why it suddenly wasn't working so I checked if there was a recent update or something. Looks like no updates for 3 years. 😬 

Welp, it was good while it lasted.

### 4/5 — Great workhorse but

*2022-11-03, version 2.0.3*

This is a fantastic and very useful app but recently it stopped making my months complete which bothers me a lot. Can you add a way to manually mark months as completed if the app doesn’t fit some reason? Been using Flic for years and will continue to do so but this little tweak would make five stars

### 2/5 — When it works

*2022-09-02, version 2.0.3*

I’ve been using this app for years and in the beginning I really loved it and upgraded to the paid version. BUT, now it is so slow and crashes constantly, like before I even have a chance to swipe a photo. Some days it works as it should, but more often than not I can’t even open it.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-12-24, version 2.0.3*

Cool concept but it does the same photos everyday so totally useless unless you have premium

### 1/5 — برنامج سئي تختار اي صوره يحفظها ويقفل لازم تشتري

*2021-10-17, version 2.0.3*

البرنامج تمزله وماتدري تختار صور يقفل عليهم وبتردها ماتقدر لازم تدفع برنامج سي وتعامل الطريقه هذي عيب

### 1/5 — Not good

*2021-08-18, version 2.0.3*

Meh

### 3/5 — Flic can’t see some of my pictures

*2021-06-05, version 2.0.3*

I have pictures on my phone with dates back to 2001.  Flic doesn’t see pictures on my phone with dates before 2012.

I have pictures on my phone that I can’t delete from within “Photos.” I don’t know why I’m not able to delete these pictures.  Flic doesn’t see these pictures, so I still can’t delete them.

With pictures I can see, Flic works fine.

### 1/5 — Premium version - Can’t access more photos

*2021-03-07, version 2.0.3*

I loved the idea of this app and bought the premium version. Unfortunately it always opens to the same pictures I’ve already swiped through and can’t access any other pictures. I’ve tried looking for a way to contact the developer for some support and can’t find that. Total waste of money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-02-22, version 2.0.3*

Paid £2.99 and the app has stopped working almost immediately.

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY

*2024-08-28, version 2.0.3*

I’ve just paid £4 to upgrade it as I was impressed with the original version and now it doesn’t work! Seems to be the same with the rest of the reviews!

### 1/5 — Shouldn’t start over every day.

*2024-05-24, version 2.0.3*

If there’s going to be a daily limit the app shouldn’t start back at the beginning of your pictures. Makes this pretty useless pretty fast.

### 1/5 — Dodgy app doesn’t work

*2024-04-25, version 2.0.3*

The app doesn’t load anything and when I clicked app support comes up with a weird dodgy website about becoming a pilot? Paid for it and it still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — This app is a lie, and a scam

*2024-03-10, version 2.0.3*

The app will let you “delete” just about 30 pictures a day, and will charge you if you want the unlimited version. Thing is, the day after I reach my daily limit, I open the app and is showing all the pictures I kept from the previous day. It’s not deleting any photos, it’s just showing you a bunch of the same ones making you think you’re freeing up space, while your waiting space on a useless app.

### 1/5 — Never loads

*2024-03-08, version 2.0.3*

Paid for this app but it very rarely loads - haven’t been able to use it for weeks now as it won’t load

### 1/5 — HIDDEN FEES!!!!

*2023-10-05, version 2.0.3*

THIS APP HAS THE GAUL TO ASK ME TO PAY TO DELETE MY OWN PHOTOS!!

UNHEARD OF!!

A DISGRACE!!

### 1/5 — Barely works

*2023-03-01, version 2.0.3*

Unsupported

### 1/5 — upgrade doesn’t work

*2023-02-10, version 2.0.3*

i spent $5 to delete photos by month. maybe i have too many photos (that’s why i downloaded this app lol) but it just loads and loads and won’t let me choose a month. i can only do it starting from the latest photo every time i open the app. basically useless

### 1/5 — GLITCHY

*2023-02-08, version 2.0.3*

Brilliant when it worked. I spent over £4 on the premium version because I was so impressed, and then it just glitched out and won’t load my photos from any other month. Waste of money, and the have no contact support to even ask for a refund.

### 1/5 — Help!

*2022-07-04, version 2.0.3*

My app hasn’t worked properly in a couple months. I keep meaning to go through picks, but each time I’d open it the app would just crash. I bought the advance version too, so I could go through ALL my picks, and order copies of my favs… and now haven’t sorted anything in a long time. I am deleting and reinstalling as I’m racking up way to many photos. If this doesn’t work, I’ll have to find another solution. 😔

### 5/5 — loved it

*2023-03-01, version 2.0.3*

Flic is definitely an app that everyone needs. If you have a lot of photos in your camera roll it does wonders to clear it up. Sitting and scrolling through your camera roll is just boring. This gives you only your photos and sorts them into each month, so you can easily delete them and clear your storage up. Pros: All the months are sorted with the number of photos that are in each month. If you want to jump around between months you can choose. After every month you go through it says clear out the trash. It's almost like a game because you swipe either left or right to delete or keep. It makes you feel good after every month you go through because it tells you how much storage you delete when you trash a photo. It checks off the month once you are finished going through it. What is nice is it deletes the photos off your phone and puts them into the recently deleted album. It will give you a pop up notification that says are you sure you want to delete just to make sure your decision is finalized. There is an undo button that allows you to go back one if you accidentally deleted or kept a photo you did or didn't want. Cons: There really aren't many cons to this app. You will have to pay $4.99 for premium one time because there is a limit of how much photos to go through. I would say it's definitely worth that money, but it is still a purchase. The photo is shown a bit small, but you can click on it to make it bigger. It is a little annoying if you want to go quicker through the photos. Also, if you leave the app you have to restart the month you were going through. It only saves where you were at if you finish the whole month. Lastly, it does take like a minute to reload all your photos back in to look at all the months when you exit Flic. Overall, these cons do not outweigh the pros at all because of how efficient Flic benefits me.

### 5/5 — Exactly What I Was Looking For

*2022-05-20, version 2.0.3*

This truly should be built into Apple’s photo app. It‘a a quick (and kind of fun) way to go through your images to keep the good and delete the unwanted. I had years worth of memes, screenshots, and unneeded photos that were just taking up space; after going through my entire photo library, I had cleared out half of the images I no longer needed. I paid for the premium version and it was well worth it. Recommending it to friends and family for sure.

### 5/5 — Wonderful!

*2021-10-03, version 2.0.3*

This app is amazing, it makes going through my photo’s so easy! I just wish it did videos too. But this is one of my top favorite apps!

### 5/5 — A very useful app!,

*2020-08-16, version 2.0.1*

Easy to use. Helps clear put you picture clutter and helps you to have only what you want in your photo library

### 5/5 — Genius and intuitive!

*2020-05-16, version 2.0.3*

I actually had thought of a tinder-like way of going through my camera roll of 6k photos, and wished there was an app for it. To my shock, there was, and it’s brilliant. The in app purchase is worth the $2 and I love the “move to favorites” function. I rarely leave reviews, but this app is sooooo much better than clicking through your camera roll painstakingly. Only complaint is that when you leave the app, it goes back to the beginning of the month and you have to sort through again. Also, the picture preview square is just a tiny bit small, but other than that it’s a great app

### 5/5 — My all video is deleted

*2020-04-13, version 2.0.3*

Please make a good video recovery please

### 5/5 — So Helpful!

*2020-03-25, version 2.0.3*

I have MANY duplicates on my phone, and this app shows me all of my photos in an easy, organized way! I know you may not want to get the premium version, but I think it’s well worth it so you can go through your entire camera roll and get all of the gunk out! Honestly this app has become a new favorite of mine!

### 5/5 — Needs update

*2020-01-21, version 2.0.3*

The months won’t load anymore. It needs a serious update

### 5/5 — Hi

*2019-06-14, version 2.0.3*

Its cool

### 5/5 — YesYesYes

*2019-06-04, version 2.0.3*

I dreamed about an app like this. Thank you so much.
