## What is PhotosSweep?

Reclaim gigabytes in minutes. PhotosSweep finds the photos and videos quietly eating your storage and helps you clear them — all on your device.

Rebuilt from the ground up for privacy: no ads, no tracking, nothing ever leaves your iPhone.

FIND WHAT'S WASTING SPACE
• Duplicates — exact copies, grouped automatically
• Similar shots — the near-identical burst of the same moment (the gap Apple's own Duplicates leaves)
• Blurry & low-quality photos — flagged by on-device AI
• Screenshots, bursts, large videos, Live Photos, and your largest files

CLEAN WITHOUT FEAR
• Swipe-to-clean — keep or delete in a fast, satisfying review with a running tally of space reclaimed
• AI best-shot — we pre-pick the keeper in each group so you never lose the good one
• In-app Trash — a 30-day safety net; nothing is gone until you say so
• Confirm before delete — no accidental taps

SAVE SPACE WITHOUT DELETING
• Convert Live Photos to stills
• Compress large videos

BUILT RIGHT
• 100% on-device — works offline, your library stays private
• Dark mode, Dynamic Type, and VoiceOver
• English and Russian
