## What is Handpick?

Your camera roll, handpicked.

Handpick shows you one photo at a time. Swipe down to keep it, swipe up to send it to Trash. Sorting is free and unlimited, with no daily cap, no ads and no account, and nothing leaves your library until you confirm.

Then let Handpick do the finding. It spots duplicates, near-identical shots, forgotten screenshots and screen recordings, blurry shots, your trips and the videos taking up your storage, all on your iPhone, so you decide faster and free up more space.

ONE PHOTO, ONE CHOICE

- Swipe down to keep, up to delete, left or right to browse.
- Double-tap to favorite. Tap an album to file a photo without leaving it.
- Start with This Week, Last Year, On This Day, Random, Videos, Screenshots or any month.
- Stop any time and pick up where you left off.

NOTHING IS GONE UNTIL YOU SAY SO

- Photos you swipe up wait in Handpick's Trash. Recover any of them, or delete them all at once.
- Nothing leaves your library until you tap Delete and confirm.
- Deleted photos stay in Recently Deleted in Photos for 30 days.

IT FINDS. YOU DECIDE.

- Junk first: start each review with what's most likely junk. Screenshots and screen recordings, saved images and GIFs, QR codes, receipts and documents, photos of screens, accidental clips, and blank, dark or blurry shots, each tagged with why it's there.
- Junk first leaves your favorites, edited photos, albums and photos of people and pets alone. Keep one it suggested and it's left alone for 30 days, or for good if you keep it again.
- Ready from the start: Junk first leads with what it has found while Handpick keeps reading the rest of your library.
- Duplicates: identical copies across your whole library, grouped with one suggested to keep.
- Similar: several takes of the same moment, with the best one put forward.
- Trips, Memorable Days and Yearly Occasions are found for you. Review each one together and save it as an album.

FREE UP SPACE

- Large Files puts your biggest videos and photos first, so a few swipes give back gigabytes.
- Compress big videos to 1080p. Each keeps its date, place and albums.
- Library stats count your duplicates, similar shots, blurry shots, screenshots and screen recordings, and how much space clearing them would free.

KEEP THE ONES YOU LOVE

- Browse your timeline and favorites, and pinch to see 4, 8 or 12 photos across.
- Arrange your albums like your Home Screen, with Personal and Shared albums in their own tabs.
- Give an album a cover photo with the background lifted away.
- A calendar shows what you've reviewed, day by day.
- On This Day and monthly reminders bring back photos worth a second look.
- Put a month of your photos on your Home Screen with the widget.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

- Works completely offline. Your photos and their analysis never leave your device.
- No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking.

• Photos timeline: pinch out past twelve across to see your library as one continuous grid, with the month shown at the top as you scroll.
• Shared albums can be browsed and are explained in the app. They're no longer offered when sorting photos into an album, because Photos doesn't let other apps change them.

• Swiping back closes one screen at a time, and Trash closes with a swipe below its photos.
