Yea. Cleaned my contacts right out. It showed duplicates, I deleted one leaving one. Until I went back into my contacts after the fact and they were all gone. Gone. No biggie, I thought, nothing ever goes away in this digital age. I’ll email support and they can walk me through the steps to bring my contacts back. I’m still waiting. No support. No contacts. ### 5/5 — Great little App *2021-11-05, version 2.1* Seems to be a good little app cleaned my iPad like it was advertised. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Billy Bob *2023-09-02, version 3.0* I gave it a one star ### 1/5 — Is not free *2023-06-12* Read the review someone left and it said “Finally a Free App “. Well not true… you have to pay $50 or a yr… total BS… why advertise saying your free, even when reading about this app, no where does it say you must pay till you download it and try to use it. If your looking for a free iPhone cleaner, keep looking… very disappointing!! ### 1/5 — Not worth downloading *2023-05-30, version 2.1* It shows duplicate contacts but doesn’t have an option to download and runs adds for another cleaner for iPhone every 5 seconds Uninstalling asap ### 1/5 — No show *2023-04-26, version 2.1* Download this app and now it’s no where to be found on my phone No icon Only can open it up by going to the App Store to use it. ### 1/5 — Dr Cleam my foot *2023-01-11, version 2.1* Highjack my iPhone and don’t let go.

App is very unstable, it locks you Out so you have to turn off phone and restart. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t clean anything *2022-02-18, version 2.1* First of all, I was asked to write a 5 star review BEFORE I could even open the apps.
