Clean Before You Share. Free Up Space.
Your photos can contain more information than you realise, including location, date, camera details, software and other metadata. And your photo library may be taking up more space than it needs to.
MetaClean helps you see what's hidden in your photos, create clean copies before sharing, and shrink large photos and videos to free up storage. Everything happens on your iPhone.
Know what your photos contain
Scan photos for metadata such as:
Location information
Date and time
Camera and capture settings
Software details
Other embedded metadata
Clean in seconds
Create a fresh copy with unwanted metadata removed, while your original photo stays untouched in Photos. Your clean copy is ready to share.
Make photos smaller
Compress a photo to share it faster, with or without removing its metadata. See the size before and after, and choose High Quality, Balanced or Smaller File.
Free Up Space
Shrink large photos and 4K videos in your library and get storage back:
See how much space you could save before anything changes
Dates, places, favourites and albums carry over to the smaller copies
Every copy is checked before iOS asks you to delete the original
Originals go to Recently Deleted, so you stay in control
Edited photos, Live Photos, Portrait photos and slo-mo videos are left as they are
Free Up Space is free for your first 1 GB saved.
Share with confidence
Clean your photos before posting to social media, sending them to friends, uploading them for work, or sharing your travel and wildlife photography.
Built for privacy
Everything happens on your iPhone. Your photos are not uploaded to a server. No account, no tracking.
Designed for every iPhone
Works beautifully on iPhone and iPad, and is optimized for iPhone Duo with full-screen layouts on the inner display.

Privacy & Terms
MetaClean processes photos locally on your device. Cleaning and compression always create new copies. Free Up Space replaces originals only after iOS asks you to confirm, and they stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days.
