## What is Phocle?

Thousands of photos piling up in your gallery, but no idea where to start?

Phocle is a swipe-based photo cleaner that helps you reclaim phone storage one decision at a time.

■ Key features

• Swipe to clean — Swipe left to mark for deletion, swipe right to keep. Decide fast with one hand.

• Smart grouping — Photos auto-grouped by month, year, folder, and large media. Tackle similar photos in one session.

• Final review — Before anything is deleted, see the full grid one more time. Tap any photo to exclude it.

• Undo support — Changed your mind? Undo the last swipe instantly.

• Photos + videos — Large videos eating storage? Clean them up too.

• Cleanup stats — See how much you've cleaned and how much storage you've reclaimed over time.

• Safe deletion — A system confirmation dialog appears before any photo is removed, so nothing is deleted without your explicit OK.

■ How it works

1. Pick a group on Home (e.g., July 2024).
2. Swipe each card left (delete) or right (keep).
3. Tap "Done" to see your final delete list as a grid.
4. Tap "Delete" to free up space.

■ Privacy

Phocle does not upload your photos. All processing happens on-device, and photo permissions are used only for cleanup.

Ads are shown to support free app operation (AdMob).
