## What is PhotoPile?

Clean up your camera roll one small pile at a time.

PhotoPile helps you review photos, screenshots, and videos in short, simple sessions. Swipe right to keep an item, swipe left to mark it for deletion, then review everything before anything is moved to Recently Deleted.

No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Your photos stay on your iPhone.

PhotoPile is designed for people who want a calmer way to clean up their photo library without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.

Features:
• Review recent photos in small piles
• Swipe to keep or mark items for deletion
• Review all delete decisions before confirming
• Clean screenshots, videos, random photos, or recent photos
• No cloud upload, no account, no analytics, no ads
• Items are moved to Recently Deleted, so you stay in control

PhotoPile does not permanently erase photos directly. Deleted items are moved through the Photos app’s normal Recently Deleted flow.
