It just works! ### 5/5 — Super useful *2025-06-14* The app is simple and the whole thing just works. Love it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Runs your phone unbearably hot! *2025-09-25* I saw this app on Reddit offering a reduced lifetime subscription. This was a mistake. This app runs very hot and laggy on iPhone 16 pro. The app is propped up by reviews from the author’s circle. Avoid. **Developer response:** Hi Ri-ba1 — I’m really sorry about the experience, and I appreciate you giving the app a try. We’ve just released version 1.3.7, which includes performance improvements and optimizations to reduce CPU usage and overheating. This update should make the app run much smoother and cooler while scanning. If you’re still seeing issues after updating, we’d love to investigate further. You can reach us via Settings → Contact Support in the app and share: • Your iPhone model & iOS version • Approx. photo library size • What you were doing when the phone got hot (scanning, browsing, deleting, etc.) Thanks again for sharing this feedback. Your report helps us improve, and we’re committed to making this a great experience for everyone. ### 1/5 — Runs your phone unbearably hot! *2025-09-23* I saw this app on Reddit offering a reduced lifetime subscription.

The screen is literally too hot to touch. Also, the app is also extremely laggy and I can’t scroll easily without delays. I like the idea of this app, but it’s not optimized for a Pro iPhone and that’s very disappointing. **Developer response:** Hi W204M276 — I’m really sorry about the experience, and I appreciate you giving the app a try.

It does a better job than another app I tried. I like that I can go to the recycle bin and recover deleted photos. So far so good. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-07-09* This app is really nice. It does a great job at identifying huge files, blurry images and bad photos. Nice job. ### 5/5 — Best of them all *2026-06-15* Literally the only app that actually finds exact duplicates and it does it very quickly absolutely love this and i have 6 of these apps ive tried **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, and I hope you enjoy using the app! ### 5/5 — Excellent App - A Must Have *2026-05-08, version 1.12.0* Absolutely brilliant app. Cleared thousands of old photos and screenshots from my phone in minutes just by swiping. Super simple to use, really satisfying, and freed up a huge amount of storage space without the usual hassle. Genuine game changer. ### 5/5 — Best of them all *2026-04-26* Literally the only app that actually finds exact duplicates and it does it very quickly absolutely love this and i have 6 of these apps ive tried **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, and I hope you enjoy using the app! ### 5/5 — Essential App for Photo Hoarders *2026-03-20, version 1.5.0* Great app for keeping on top of all your photos. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-01-27* Media Management made easy!

Instead of doom scrolling through my photo roll the AI sorts through it for me finding pictures it thinks can be deleted. It’s such an amazing time saver! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
