## What is Moments?

Thousands of photos. A phone that's always full. And somewhere in between, the moments you actually care about.

Moments turns your camera roll into something you can finish. One month at a time, one swipe at a time, until only the best is left.


SWIPE TO DECIDE
Photos come up as cards. Swipe right to keep, left to set aside. Videos play full screen, one after another: swipe up to keep one and move on, or send it to the trash with a tap. Undo is always one tap away.

ONE MONTH AT A TIME
Your library is split into months, so you never face 20,000 photos at once. Finish a month, watch it move to Done, and pick up where you left off whenever you have five minutes.

LET MOMENTS FIND THE CLUTTER
- Similar shots: every series of near-identical photos, with the best one picked for you
- Bursts: keep the picks and let the extra frames go
- Duplicates: photos saved twice, cleared in one tap
- Blurry & dark: shaky, out-of-focus and pocket shots
- Receipts & documents: the parking tickets and paperwork you'll never look at again
- Screenshots and Downloads: everything you saved from Safari, Messages and other apps, in one place
- Large videos: your biggest videos first, and how much space each one takes

GET SPACE BACK, KEEP THE MOMENT
- Shrink videos: big videos saved again in Full HD or smaller, still sharp on your phone
- Shrink photos: huge ProRAW and 48 MP shots turned into compact HEIF copies
- Live Photos to stills: keep the picture, drop the few seconds of video, and choose the exact frame
- A clean-up guide that lists every step, biggest first, and tells you roughly when your iPhone will run out of space

FALL FOR YOUR PHOTOS AGAIN
- On this day: photos from today's date in earlier years
- Places: your photos on a globe, by continent, country and city
- Subjects: pets, beaches, sunsets, concerts, weddings and more, recognised on your device
- Albums: go through any album from Photos
- Shuffle: see a month, or all your videos, in a new order

KEEP IT TIDY
- Rules gather old screenshots, old downloads and big videos, so they're waiting for you next time
- A short note on the 1st of each month, and an On this day memory, only if you turn them on
- Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen, plus Siri and Shortcuts: just ask how many photos you have left

NOTHING IS LOST BY ACCIDENT
What you set aside waits in the trash for a final look. Anything you delete stays in Recently Deleted in Photos for 30 days, and Moments keeps a list of everything it removed.

Your photos never leave your device. Moments looks through your library right on your iPhone or iPad. No account and no tracking.

Every tool is free to use, and the first 5 GB you remove are on us. Moments Pro is a one-time in-app purchase that lifts the limit. No subscription, and it's shared with your family through Family Sharing.

Keep the best. Let the rest go.

What's new in Moments 1.2

Thank you to everyone who shared feedback. This update is built around your suggestions.

Swipe your way
• Prefer swiping the other way? You can now swap the directions in Settings, so left keeps and right sets aside.

Finish faster
• Long-press a month to mark the whole month as reviewed in one go.
• In Places, mark an entire continent, country, region or city as reviewed.

Delete with confidence
• Before a big clean-up, you'll see exactly what's about to go: how many photos and videos, how much space it frees, and a preview of every item.
• Bursts are explained clearly, including why iOS may count more photos than you picked. The frames you keep are always saved first.

You choose the best shot
• In Similar Shots and Bursts, tap "Make this the best" to pick your own favourite. Moments remembers it, and "Keep the best of each" uses it.
• Every group now shows how much space it frees.
• Live Photos turned into stills keep the key photo you chose in Photos.

Shrink without worry
• Smaller copies keep their date, place, favourite and hidden status, and stay in the same albums. Moments now checks every copy afterwards and puts right anything that didn't carry over.
• A new "What the copy keeps" explanation shows exactly what is kept and what isn't.

A guided tour
• New to Moments? An interactive tour shows you around while your library loads. It covers swiping, the trash, the tools, Places and Settings.
• Take it again any time from Settings or from the "What Moments is working on" panel.

Your progress, everywhere
• Space freed, photos looked through and your streak are now saved in iCloud, so they come back if you reinstall.

A fresh look
• A new animated trash bin that fills up as you sort and opens when something lands in it.
• The stats on the home screen are now neatly centred.


And more...
