Cheated and frustrated as it’s asking me to pay again. I have tried clicking the help button on the app but that doesn’t work either. ### 1/5 — No son similares las fotos *2025-07-02, version 2.1* Tengo que ver una por una ### 1/5 — Junk *2025-06-10, version 2.1* This app doesn’t work I want a refund ### 1/5 — Filter doesn’t work, useless extra steps *2025-05-18, version 2.1* The filter mechanism always resorts to size no matter what, when deleting each individual photo there is a useless animation to celebrate deleting a file. I really hate this app. ### 1/5 — Все платное. *2025-05-01* Все платное. Не даёт даже проверить пробно без ввода карты оплаты ### 2/5 — Unable to unsubscribe *2025-03-21, version 1.7.3* It was good but i want to unsubscribe as its not what im looking for. Please tell me how to unsubscribe. ### 1/5 — Uninstalling Cause I’m being forced to pay for a Free App *2025-01-25, version 1.6.4* This app used to be free and now they’re forcing us to pay monthly for it without any free tier. I’m just going to uninstall the app and find a different free one. Ridiculous all these apps are charging monthly for them. ### 2/5 — Clumsy *2024-12-19, version 1.6.3* Only reason I bothered to get this is because I was inundated with “cleaners” It was either this which seemed legit or simply stop using my iPad. Such a waste of $50. Will probably struggle through once then delete it! ### 1/5 — لا افهم *2024-12-08, version 1.6.3* كلشي بفلوس ### 4/5 — Review of finding duplicate photos *2024-11-29, version 1.6.3* Just delete the photos and stop with the confetti and such. It takes time and is unnecessary. ### 1/5 — Adware *2024-10-18, version 1.6.2* Wants subscription before you can even see what (If anything) it doese❗️ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — U have to pay!? *2026-06-30, version 2.2* First of all,I have had terrible storage problems,so bad that I can’t even update my iPad or iPhone,so I was like”hey let’s try this app”You have to pay to get full access to:/,like I get u need money to support the app and stuff but why cant I just clean my storage for free?!also I don’t know how to use this app,it is very complicated and annoying to use ### 1/5 — disappointed *2026-03-22, version 2.2* This app stated it was “free” and then made you spend hours deleting photos for you to have to pay £34 to delete them. Absolute joke don’t give any money into this app. ( i would give no stars but it’s making me do at least 1) ### 1/5 — !!!! *2026-03-11, version 2.2* Need free trial to do all but without it can’t do anything ### 1/5 — It’s not making my life any better. I’m still having search you all this stuff and check. *2026-01-14, version 2.2* Very difficult to use I feel I need to just be able to get in there and go through the videos duplicates and all that, but I don’t see any way to do that. Those are taken up the most space. So if it is there, I haven’t seen it yet just running me through the whole program all through the phone. I gotta sort through every picture at a time that’s crazy. ### 1/5 — Limited to photo cleanup, nothing else *2025-11-26, version 2.2* Limited to cleaning photos, nothing else. Not as advertised ### 1/5 — What rubbish *2025-10-30, version 2.1* I paid for the app & it did nothing just said continue but when clicked did 0% of anything. Do not bother ### 1/5 — yêu cầu hoàn tiền *2025-10-17, version 2.1* Tôi đã vô tình đăng ký gia hạn ### 1/5 — Lừa đảo chẳng cí hình đã xóa nào chỉ biết lừa tiền *2025-10-04, version 2.1* 1 ### 1/5 — Không đăng ký gói mà tự trừ tiền? *2025-08-11, version 2.1* Tải app này về còn chưa kịp dùng đã tự mua gói, tự trừ tiền, tự gia hạn???? App lừa đảo tiền à??? ### 1/5 — 思ってるのと違った *2025-07-07* 無料というのは100%ないのはわかるけど、、、　　金額とか　　価値観が合わなかった。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thanks *2026-07-23, version 2.2* Good ### 5/5 — Great storage cleaner *2026-07-05, version 2.2* Wow this app is very good because it made my storage low ### 5/5 — Phone cleaner *2025-10-24, version 2.1* Awesome cleaning App ### 5/5 — Great compressor *2025-08-01, version 2.1* I love this app. Really helps condense all the photos is and videos ### 5/5 — Works great *2025-05-28, version 2.1* I cleaned my phone. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-04-07, version 2.0* An excellent cleaning tool.
