What's New in PixCarry
2.0
October 31, 2026
PixCarry 2.0 is the biggest update yet. NEW: Clean up your library • An overview shows how much space you can free up, and where it is. • Duplicates: the same photo saved more than once. The copy to keep is chosen for you: your favorite, the one you edited, or the largest. • Similar shots: bursts and retakes of the same moment, with the sharpest one picked to keep. • Blurry and dark photos, screenshots, screen recordings and pictures saved from WhatsApp or social media. • Large videos, biggest first. • Swipe through suggestions one by one: left to delete, right to keep. • See which photos are already backed up, and mark the ones that aren't junk so they're never suggested again. • New photos are checked in the background while your phone charges. Everything is checked on your phone; nothing is uploaded. NEW: Send photos to another phone • Pair two phones with a code and send photos straight across, on the same Wi-Fi or over the internet. They land in the other phone's photo library. NEW: Send an album • Send one album into a folder with its name, then free up the space it takes on this phone if you like. Albums sent to Immich or PhotoPrism become albums there too. Also new • Date folders and date-based file names (for example 2026/09/20260915_120001.HEIC). • Send HEIC photos as JPEG, keeping capture date, location and camera details. • Hide screenshots and junk while picking photos, and pick a whole month at once. • Better layout on iPad and on wider iPhones. • Many fixes and speed improvements.
