Excellent

Over the course of a month I was able to reduce my photo library from over forty-two thousand to under six thousand three hundred by just doing a little here and there.

It’s so easy to use and to reverse any mistakes. It allows you to sort photos as well as delete all within the app so you don’t have to be switching out all the time and the daily prompts encourage you to do at least something.

I only wish the regular subscription was cheaper as it’s an app I’d like to have kept long term.

Great but pricey otherwise it would be 5 stars.

So easy to sort through photos as and when. instead of doom scrolling! Only thing is it’s a bit pricey.

Освободила 190гб памяти за 6 месяцев

Приложение очень нравится, пользовалась каждый день более 6 месяцев, но после обновления уже неделю не могу зайти, очень грустно от этого, просто висит приветственный экран, и ничего не происходит, весь прогресс утерян, надеюсь, получится восстановить доступ в ближайшее время🙏

Ads are too long and won’t close

On your free swipes for a day, expect to have to sit through 3 or more 2min long ads, unable to close them. Makes app unusable

Buggy

It’s a great app but very buggy. Photos can end up zoomed in and I can’t unzoom them until I force restart. it can hang on adding / removing favourites and if I leave the monthly folder it can freeze the app so has to be force restarted. A great concept and idea but needs these functioning processes made steady.

App doesnt open after latest update

Stays at start screen. Lost streak. Booooooo

Great until it wasn’t :(

Been using this app for a while and I’ve cleared about 50k from my camera roll and built up a streak, even when they introduced ads they were bearable as you can swipe them away quickly. Since getting the latest update the app just won’t open, it freezes on the opening screen, and there’s no way to contact anyone about it. Shame as I loved this app but now need to look for a new photo sorting app

Loved it until it stopped working

When I tap the app, it goes to the loading screen and then nothing opens up. I don’t know how to report a problem! If this isn’t fixed soon, I’m asking for a refund.

Love

Best app I do try to use it daily I need help with 60,000 photos.

Unskippable ads make this unusable

I used to love this app but it has now been taken over by much too constant unskippable long ads. Instead of keeping a customer that might occasionally pay for premium when they could you’ve lost me completely as I will not give my money as a way to give in to the ad bombardment. I didn’t mind when there were ads placed as swipeable cards within the photo sorting but now they’re full screen unskippable I find this app unusable. This isn’t a good way to get revenue and as you can see from other recent reviews you are alienating your user base. I also see your generic responses to these reviews so I don’t really care for your response - I am posting this as a heads up to other new users - this app has massively deteriorated and the devs don’t care about you. Save your time and find another app or go through your pics manually, it’s actually less gruelling than using this app these days.

Actually a life saver.

I cannot even begin to explain to you how much I hate going through my camera roll. It’s tedious and super time consuming. But after seeing an ad for this app I decided i would give it a try. Looked pretty slick. When I hit the first paywall I got pretty frustrated with it and decided to come to the reviews to leave my 2 cents but I noticed there really weren’t many bad reviews and the ones that were there the app developer actually commented. You can skip the pay wall.. just close out the app and reopen it. Or hit the x up at the top of the screen. Then you still get swipes. Additionally for inviting a friend you can get like 2000 swipes for free. Tell them to input your code then ask them for theirs. Bam 2000 swipes plus 250 just for clicking the button. That’s plenty enough to get your device cleaned out. Thank you so much development team!

Very Helpful App

It’s perfect most of the time. But sometimes when I try to open it stuck on the welcome page, can’t solve even I try to restart my phone 🥲🥲🥲

Idk

I love it instead of clicking to delete two times and waisting my time

Ads

Ads are way too annoying now, no option to close them

My code 576LT

Good

App freezes

After the October 9 update, the app freezes at startup.

Well thought out app

I love how easy it is to clean up photos and videos. It lets me easily speed up videos so I can get the gist of it and decide to keep it or not. It recognizes potential duplicates even though the photo angle is not exactly the same.
Best of all it deletes the photos for you after confirming you want all the “no’s” deleted.

Dissatisfied and disappointed

New update added ads in the middle of reviewing photos - would rather ads if they must be there be at the beginning or end. Also got glitchy and doesn’t actually successfully delete photos.

I LOVE THIS APP

This app has saved me 2GB of data and I look forward to going on it every day! I 100% recommend!

Pop up ads now make it unusable

This app used to be great for a daily swipe. They have now introduced pop up ads which pretty much make the ad unusable. The ad blocks the screen and quite often cannot be closed anymore.

I support ads to help developers finance the app, but not when it regresses the user experience. Also the subscription is very expensive - it costs more per week(!) than monthly costs for extra storage with iCloud by a few terabytes, which defeats the purpose of the app! Subscription fatigue is real.
