Even though I have a screenshot of me purchasing premium, I am unable to restore it. I’m only rating 5 stars since I’m unsure how to contact the creators of the app. ### 1/5 — Be honest about your price *2024-12-09, version 2.2.2* It’s “free” until you use it for about two minutes, then you have to pay. Not worth it. ### 1/5 — This app makes no sense. *2024-07-27* I can't delete anything until I've been through the entire folder. Why not? Badges, as though I need encouragement to delete bad photos? I don't! I just want to delete them. But I can't unless I play by your weird rules? Makes no sense. ### 1/5 — Can't find the recycle bin *2024-07-27, version 2.2.1* Can't find the recycle bin ### 1/5 — How do you get to your photos!?!?! *2024-07-25, version 2.2.1* I downloaded the app so I could get rid of quite a few duplicate pics and old screenshots that I don’t need anymore. I liked that the app didn’t go off on its own and start deleting what IT thought was unwanted. But I don’t even see a way to get to ANY of my photos at all! The only thing I see when I open it is the “On this day” which has NOTHING in it! There’s no tutorial or anything useful to explain how to get to anything. I’ll keep it for a while to see if suddenly something pops up, but so far it’s more of a space waster than a way to save space. Any app that has a price of $70 should be a little less frustrating to use! ### 1/5 — 100% scam literally Bait & switch GARBAGE *2024-07-25* On 7/25/24 this trash scam developer offered users of AppAdvice the free lifetime subscription for good reviews but after downloading the app the only available price is $9.99 monthly no other options appear. In trying to contact this garbage developer all information on Apple App Store appears to be fake and fraudulent as they provide contact that leads to a 404 page not available 🙈 But wait there’s more in reading the tos and privacy policy they are literally telling you they will use any and all of your private information to market to third parties as they so choose Sooo here’s your review Sammy your a scam artist putting an app onto the App Store with nefarious intentions 🤮 Truly 💯🤡 **Developer response:** Try now. It’s free. We do not use your private information. Feel free to reach out at contact@pocketappcrafters.com ### 2/5 — Good and easy BUT… *2024-07-31, version 2.2.1* I’d like to give this five stars, but there’s a problem. It does help to delete photos easily HOWEVER if you are listening to anything else while deleting photos, this app makes a ringtone upon deletion every time which stops the book or music you’re listening to. You must exit the app go back to the app broadcasting whatever you’re listening to and tell it to start playing again. There is no setting to silence these alert tones. For everything else this is terrific, but this feature alone prohibits me from using the app. A huge PITA! ### 2/5 — Unable to subscribe to membership. *2024-07-28, version 2.2.1* Clicking on the order will flash back, even if it shows that the order was successful, it will still let me order members. ### 3/5 — Swipes wasted *2025-03-10, version 2.2.2* I like this app it’s saved a good bit of space for me but most of the time it comes up with a black screen and when I swipe on it to move to the next photo it stays black. It uses my swipes and by time it’s gone I’m out of swipes for my actual photos. Hoping for an app update soon. ### 3/5 — Needs work *2024-09-03* It’s missing a simple way recover photos if a mistake was made. Perhaps I’m missing something. Would appreciate a response from the developer. ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I can't stop using it *2024-11-28, version 2.2.2* Oh my God it's so good download it ### 5/5 — Great! *2024-08-13, version 2.2.1* Edit: Works perfectly now! But my free lifetime premium didn’t work. If this gets fixed, I’ll happily and promptly update my review, but unless I get my free premium, it’ll stay 4 stars. ### 5/5 — Very easy to use! *2024-07-29, version 2.2.1* It’s fun looking through my photos and cleaning my files up. Easier, faster and more fun than the traditional way! Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Super cool super easy! *2024-07-18, version 2.2.1* Love this app! I use it everyday to keep my streak going and to clear out and organize old photos. Super nostalgic ### 4/5 — Almost perfect... *2024-07-25* But my free lifetime premium didn’t work. If this gets fixed, I’ll happily and promptly update my review, but unless I get my free premium, it’ll stay 4 stars. **Developer response:** Thanks for your review. I’m sorry you experienced this issue. This issue has been fixed. Please try again ### 3/5 — No undelete? Lost a good photo *2024-07-26, version 2.2.1* I was kind of excited to use. I was reviewing my photos and accidentally deleted one as I moved to next photo but unfortunately I kept the next photo and so missed opportunity to recover my photo. I thought it would be in iPhone’s recently deleted album but it was not. I am just sick to lose a photo. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
