## What is Reclaim?

Reclaim finds what's filling your iPhone and iCloud from your photo library, and helps you get that space back, safely and privately.

CLEAN UP
• Similar Photos: keeps the best shot of each moment, judged by sharpness, framing, edits and favorites
• Duplicates: exact copies, even saved months apart
• Burst Photos: the extra frames Photos keeps but rarely shows
• Blurry & Accidental: out-of-focus, very dark and pocket shots
• Utility Shots: receipts, documents and parking-spot photos you no longer need
• Screenshots & Recordings: filter by age
• Saved from Apps: images and videos saved from chats and the web
• Biggest Items: your largest photos and videos

SHRINK
Keep everything, just smaller:
• Live Photos to Still: keep the photo, drop the 3-second clip
• Remove the RAW copy from RAW+JPEG pairs
• Compress videos to efficient HEVC
• Convert heavy photos to HEIC
Dates, locations, favorites and albums are kept. Preview the quality side by side before you start.

QUICK CLEAN
One screen with the safe picks from every tool. One of each moment is always kept.

SWIPE
Go through your library month by month, or review videos, On This Day and albums. Swipe left to delete, right to keep.

SAFE BY DESIGN
Nothing is deleted until you review it and confirm in the iOS alert. Deleted items stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days.

PRIVATE
Everything runs on your device with Apple's own frameworks. No accounts, no tracking, no ads.
