## What is Photo Cleaner?

Free up gigabytes of storage in minutes. Swipe right to keep, swipe left to delete — that's it.

Photo Cleaner turns the chore you've been putting off for years into a satisfying card game. Find duplicates, similar shots, blurry photos, old screenshots, and forgotten messaging media — then swipe through them and reclaim space you didn't know you had.

A typical user frees 5–15 GB on their first cleanup session.

— SWIPE TO CLEAN —
Swipe right to keep, left to delete. A card-stack interface that's fast, tactile, and impossible to mess up. Every action is fully undoable. Nothing is permanently erased until you confirm.
- Unlimited undo
- Trash Bin with full recovery
- Bulk selection for power cleanups
- Photo info at a glance: date, size, dimensions
- Haptic feedback tuned for every action

— AI DETECTION, ALL ON-DEVICE —
Photo Cleaner uses Apple's Vision framework to scan your library locally. No cloud. No account. Nothing uploaded.
- DUPLICATES — exact-match detection by image hash
- SIMILAR PHOTOS — ML-powered visual similarity for burst shots and near-identical selfies
- BLURRY — finds out-of-focus photos you'd never look at again
- SCREENSHOTS — isolates captured screens for a 60-second sweep
- LIVE PHOTOS — grouped so you can review motion clips separately
- MESSAGING MEDIA — clean WhatsApp, Messages, and other app folders that quietly eat storage
- VIDEOS — same swipe flow with inline playback

— REDISCOVER YOUR LIBRARY —
Cleanup doesn't have to feel cold. Photo Cleaner turns it into a trip through your own timeline.
- MEMORY LANE — browse your library month by month with photo-backed cards and review progress
- TODAY'S THROWBACK — see what you captured on this day in previous years, with locations auto-detected from GPS
- BY YEAR, BY ALBUM — jump to any moment in seconds
- FAVORITES — marked keepers stay protected forever

— SEE YOUR PROGRESS —
Real stats, not vanity numbers.
- Storage freed in actual MB, not estimates
- Daily, weekly, monthly goals
- Current and longest streaks
- Activity heatmap
- Best session, most productive day
- Cleanup breakdown by category

— PRIVATE BY DEFAULT —
Your photos never leave your iPhone. Every scan, every match, every recommendation runs on-device. No sign-in. No cloud. No servers. Analytics are optional and anonymized — you control the switch.

— BUILT FOR YOUR LIBRARY —
- iPhone and iPad, portrait and landscape
- Dark, Light, and Automatic themes
- VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion
- 11 languages
- Tuned for libraries with 50,000+ photos
- Works fully offline

— PRICING —
Photo Cleaner is free to try with 50 cleanups, no trial countdown.

Pro unlocks unlimited cleanups, advanced similar-photo detection, video cleanup, messaging media, blurry finder, and full analytics. Choose weekly, monthly, or yearly — or pay once with the lifetime option.
