## What is It's a Trash?

Your camera roll didn't get messy in one day — but you can clean it in minutes.

It's a Trash turns photo cleanup into something you'll actually finish: swipe right to keep, swipe left to trash. Everything lands in a review bin first, so nothing is ever deleted behind your back.

SWIPE THROUGH YOUR LIBRARY
• Fast, one-thumb cleanup — keep or trash with a flick
• Undo any swipe, star your favorites as you go
• Pick up exactly where you left off with session resume
• Start swiping from any photo, month, or filter

SMART SUGGESTIONS DO THE HUNTING
• Duplicates and near-identical shots, grouped with the best one picked for you
• Burst photos — keep the winner, drop the rest
• Blurry photos, poor lighting, closed eyes and bad expressions, found on-device
• Screenshots, screen recordings, huge files and old short videos, all in one place
• Everything runs privately on your iPhone — your photos never leave your device

HIDDEN LIBRARY (NEW)
• Move personal photos into a private space inside the app
• Locked with a 4-digit PIN, with optional Face ID
• Hidden photos disappear from your library, swipe deck and suggestions
• Restore them to your camera roll anytime, or export an offline backup file

STAY IN CONTROL
• Trash bin review before anything is permanently deleted
• See exactly how much storage you've freed
• Streaks, achievements and a 7-day declutter challenge to keep you going
• Cleanup reminders when junk starts piling up again

MORE
• Connect Dropbox or OneDrive to clean cloud photos (Pro)
• Light & dark mode, English, Spanish and Portuguese
• Free plan: generous daily cleanup, with bonus deletes available
• Pro: unlimited deletes, no ads, cloud sources and all smart categories

No account. No uploads. Just a cleaner camera roll — and the storage you paid for, back.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.41.0 — 2026-09-02

- The welcome screens, empty states, and celebration copy now talk like the rest of the app: dry, about the camera roll, never about you.
- A scan that finds nothing now says so, instead of leaving a blank card.
- Fixed a case where resuming could overwrite the session you were being offered.
- The Hidden Library tells you when your backup no longer covers everything you have hidden.

### 1.40.0 — 2026-08-27

- New: a fast scroll bar in the Library. Drag it to fly through thousands of photos, with the month you're passing shown as you go.
- Suggestion cards now tell you what they've actually checked — "All 4,182 checked", or "312 new to check" when you've taken photos since.
- Fixed photos not always being hidden properly in the Hidden Library. If you hid photos in the last version, open the Hidden Library once to make sure everything is where you expect.
- Fixed Pro not always being recognised, which could show upgrade prompts and daily limits to subscribers.
- Fixed getting stuck on the welcome screens if you tapped Next twice quickly.
- Fixed month headings in the Library showing the wrong month in some time zones.
- Fixed taps not registering on cloud videos and the retry button while swiping.
- Fixed signing out of Dropbox or OneDrive sometimes not sticking.
- Fixed a category you had already scanned coming back as "Not scanned yet" after you restarted the app.
- Fixed the app announcing new matches after a re-scan that had not found anything new.
- Fixed a video carrying on playing, sound and all, after you left the Swipe tab.
- Fixed the Favourites count including photos you had already deleted, and space freed being reported inconsistently.
- The welcome screens now respect Reduce Motion, and more of the app is labelled for screen readers.
- The title now stays put on Account and Suggestions instead of scrolling away with the content.
- Slightly smaller download.

### 1.39.0 — 2026-08-25

- Swiping feels sharper: you now feel the card the moment you let go, and a light tick when a swipe is far enough to count.
- Quick flicks are easier to pull off — a fast swipe no longer snaps back just because you eased off at the end.
- Undo now slides the photo back onto the deck instead of snapping it into place.
- Fixed rotated photos and videos sometimes showing swapped width and height in their details.
- Scan progress bars no longer spill past the end of the bar.
- Deselecting your last photo now closes the selection bar in the Library and the Hidden Library.
- Your settings now live behind the gear in the top right of the Account tab — the tab itself is just your progress.
- Double Features only groups videos that are genuinely the same file now, instead of any two clips of a similar length.
- Finishing a filtered deck ("On this day", a month, screenshots) now offers to swipe your whole library instead of replaying the same few photos.
- The filter bar no longer looks like it's on "All" when a filter further along is active.
- The screen no longer jumps when your cloud photos finish loading.
- Under-the-hood updates to keep the app current on the latest platform tools.

### 1.38.0 — 2026-08-19

- New: Hidden Library — lock private photos behind a PIN, with optional Face ID unlock. Hidden photos leave your camera roll and won't show up while swiping or in suggestions.
- Add an optional second "decoy" PIN that opens a separate space.
- Back up your hidden photos to a file you can re-import later.

### 1.33.1 — 2026-07-22

- Under-the-hood improvements for reliability.
- Fixed an issue where tapping certain notifications (like "On This Day") from a closed app could get stuck on the loading screen.
