## What is PiePix?

"Storage Almost Full" again? PiePix turns your photo library into a colorful donut you can tap your way into - year, month, day, down to the one 4K video quietly eating a gigabyte.

Red slices are the big ones. Follow the heat, delete what you don't need, watch the number drop. Every scan runs on your phone: photos are never uploaded, and there's no account to make.

SEE WHERE YOUR SPACE WENT
• Drill-down donut: years > months > days > files, red (biggest) to purple (smallest) - tap the middle to go back up
• Real sizes even for photos kept in iCloud - nothing downloads just to be measured
• Year in Photos: a calendar heatmap of the days that cost you the most space

FAST WAYS TO FREE SPACE
• Sweep - swipe right to keep, left to bin. One tap deletes the pile.
• Daily 10 - a one-minute deck of today's best candidates
• Duplicates - near-identical copies, grouped for you
• Similar Shots - bursts and retakes, keep the best of each
• Screenshots - usually clutter, not memories
• Blurry & Low Quality - out-of-focus and low-res shots
• Heavy Hitters - your 100 largest videos, ranked

KNOW BEFORE YOU DELETE
• "You could free about 12 GB" - an honest estimate, no scare tactics
• How long your free space lasts at the rate you're shooting
• Totals for this month and all time, plus a recap card to share

AND THE PART THAT'S JUST NICE
• On This Day, Surprise Me and Top Days bring your best days back
• Heart a day, name it ("Beach Trip"), find it again in seconds
• Pip, your crumb-loving companion: earn Crumbs and Pixels as you clean, keep a daily streak going, and dress him up in the shop
• Home Screen widgets, and 20 languages you can switch any time

PIEPIX PRO
• Export to Drive - copy photos and videos to a USB stick or external drive
• Storage Explorer - where your storage really goes, on device and in iCloud
• Live Photo Slimming - keep the photo, drop the hidden video
• Batch video compression - shrink big videos instead of deleting them
• Full Duplicates and Blurry scans (free gives you a preview)
• No ads

Pro is a weekly, monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time Lifetime unlock - prices shown before you buy. Without Pro, PiePix stays free and shows ads. Crumb and Pixel packs are optional: they buy Pip's outfits and Streak Shields, never cleaning tools.

YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS
Sizes, duplicates, blur, similarity - all worked out on your device. Nothing is uploaded, there's no sign-up, diagnostics never leave your phone. Only your progress (streak, Crumbs, named days) syncs through your own iCloud. Deletions always go through Apple's own confirmation and land in Recently Deleted for 30 days, so nothing vanishes without your tap.

Free up space, feed Pip, and see how much lighter your phone feels.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-08

Pip has been busy.

20 languages - pick yours during setup, or switch any time in Settings. No relaunch, the whole app changes on the spot.
A redesigned Clean tab that leads with your numbers: how much you could free, how fast your library is growing, and a fresh pick to deal with each day.
Six new cleanup tools, including Similar Shots (bursts and retakes - keep the best of each), Live Photo Slimming, batch video compression, and Year in Photos.
Pinch to zoom in the full-screen viewer, photos and videos alike.
Videos now play sound with the ringer on silent, and your music picks back up afterwards.
Fixed the ad banner covering the last row on several screens.
Also fixed: deleting selected photos could bounce you back to the main screen with nothing deleted - PiePix now explains when photo access is the problem.

Thanks for cleaning with us. Tell Pip what to fix next: Settings > Help Center.
