## What is PhotoBus?

PhotoBus is a calm photo cleanup workspace for your growing library.

Photo cleanup should not feel like a chore you have to finish in one sitting. PhotoBus helps you understand what is taking up space, choose an easy place to start, and review photos or videos at your own pace. Stop anytime. Continue whenever.

What is new in PhotoBus 3.0

New workspace home: continue your last review, start with similar photos, large files or screenshots, browse memories, and jump into local backup from one clear place.

Continue review: PhotoBus remembers your progress so you can clean up a little today and pick up later.

Swipe review flow: review details, keep, delete, favorite, add to albums, or share from one consistent vertical flow.

Storage insights: see your library footprint by photos, videos, screenshots, Live Photos and months, then open each section as a quick cleanup entry.

Similar photo detection: find near-duplicate photo groups and review them when you are ready.

Video and large file cleanup: identify files that may be worth compressing or removing.

Local backup to computer: copy photos to your Mac or PC over local Wi-Fi. No cloud upload required.

Why PhotoBus

Calm by design: cleanup can be gradual, not all-or-nothing.

Clear decisions: understand storage before deciding what to clean.

Private workflow: photos are processed locally and can be backed up over your own network.

Practical tools: organize, free up space, and protect memories in one app.

If your photo library has been waiting for a gentle reset, PhotoBus helps you start with one small step.
