## What is PhotoBroom?

PhotoBroom is a photo cleaner for iPhone and iPad. It finds the duplicates, near-copies, screenshots and oversized videos filling your storage - then helps you clear them in seconds.

YOUR PHOTOS STAY PRIVATE
PhotoBroom processes your photos and videos entirely on your device. No media is uploaded to the cloud. No account required. Just you and your library.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan - PhotoBroom analyzes your library using advanced on-device machine learning
2. Review - Browse through groups of similar photos with an intuitive swipe interface
3. Clean - Keep your favorites, remove the rest with a single tap

SMART DUPLICATE DETECTION
PhotoBroom doesn't just find exact copies. Its intelligent algorithm detects:
- Near-identical shots taken moments apart
- Similar selfies and portraits
- Photos with minor differences

SEVEN CLEANUP CATEGORIES
- Similar Photos - duplicate and near-duplicate detection
- Swipe to Clean - flick through your whole library card by card, swipe right to keep, left to delete
- Screenshots - dedicated tile so you can clear them in bulk
- Low Scored Photos - on-device AI rates every photo and surfaces your weakest shots, worst first, with an adjustable sensitivity
- Screen Recordings - clear out long screen captures in one place
- Large Videos - sorted by size with a configurable threshold
- Short Videos - clips below a length you choose (Live Photos excluded automatically)

QUALITY-SCORED REVIEW
Each photo gets an on-device quality score using Apple's Vision framework. The best photo in every group is highlighted gold and pre-selected, so the obvious choice is one tap away.

POWERFUL FEATURES
- One-Tap Cleanup: Select the best photo, automatically remove the rest
- Visual Comparison: Zoom and pan to spot differences between photos
- Fast Review Mode: Quickly skip through groups when cleaning large libraries
- Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust how strict the duplicate matching should be
