## What is Sifta?

Sifta is a swipe-first photo cleaner for iPhone that helps you remove duplicates, blurry shots, burst photos, videos, and Live Photos without risky one-tap deletion.

Instead of deleting immediately, Sifta lets you keep what matters first, stage the rest safely, and review everything before removal. Core cleanup runs on your device, so your library stays private.

What you can do with Sifta:
• Swipe to keep, skip, or stage photos
• Find duplicate, blurry, burst, and similar photos faster
• Review videos in a vertical feed and clean unwanted clips
• Detect and play Live Photos in the video flow
• Use a safety-first staging queue before deleting
• Delete in stable batches with pause and continue controls
• Track cleanup progress over time
• Send feedback directly inside the app

Why people choose Sifta:
• On-device processing for better privacy
• No cloud upload required for core cleanup
• Safer review flow to reduce accidental deletion
• Supports 50+ languages

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.3 — 2026-05-26

• Membership is now Lifetime Unlock only—a one-time App Store purchase; new monthly/yearly plans are hidden, and Restore Purchase still works for existing subscriptions.
• Free staging delete quota rises from 200 to 500 for non‑members.
• Swipe‑down undo is labeled «Take back» in English with clearer tutorial copy.
• Idle gesture hints now show swipe directions above Keep/Delete to guide new users.
• Fixed today’s 20‑photo task resetting to 0/20 after completion; you stay at 20/20 until you opt in to keep organizing without counting toward today’s task.
• Lifetime Unlock shows a strikethrough reference price plus your App Store price.
• «Pure mode» becomes «Pet mode» with the switch inverted; upgraders keep their prior display habit.
• Pet potions stack additively (capped at 100%); toy/clean boosts match shop labels; Revival potion can revive archived pets.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-05-19

• Home sift: filter by all, year, month, or day—with grid, calendar, and multi-select; narrow your range from the progress panel.
• Swipes follow your finger: up queues for AirDrop, down undoes, left deletes, right keeps—with color zones and inertia for light swipes.
• Staging replaces To delete; new Pending AirDrop list (separate from delete quota); share cards to apps like WeChat.
• Video: share and AirDrop from the feed, comfortable HDR playback, smoother autoplay and controls.
• Cleanup: tighter blur picks, sharper previews, burst groups with reliable undo, gentler segment scanning.
• Progress, pets, and preferences save on device first; smarter cloud merge when signed in; loading stresses on-device privacy.
• Smoother card stacks, idle gesture hints, and filter UI copy in 20+ languages.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-05-13

• If your sign-in session expires, you'll return to login with a clear prompt instead of a stuck verification screen.
• More reliable cloud merge after reinstall or on weak networks fixes rare duplicate pets, duplicate welcome trials, or coffee coins briefly showing zero.
• Welcome gift card only on first real claim (shorter title); accounts that already claimed won't see it again after reinstall.
• Welcome trial dates follow your app language; Profile refreshes membership when online. Pet labels avoid English fallback in Chinese variants; reward dialogs fixed in Simplified Chinese; Turkish polish.
• In-app notices for important updates—mark Read to dismiss for good. Fixed trial Pro sometimes not restoring after updates or flaky networks.
• Clean Mode (default off) hides pet and home coin/gift hints and reduces reward prompts, with explanations in many languages; copyable user ID on Profile for support, simplified signed-in card.
• Faster, cooler startup: Home prioritises its photos with progress; Cleanup loads by segment instead of prefetching blur, screenshots, and burst all at once. Burst now matches Blur/Screenshots card flow—including Live badge, fullscreen, and long-press to play.
• Video prefetching and duplicate scanning reuse work and size filters to cut CPU and battery use on large libraries; brand and idle animations are gentler on the GPU and pause when hot, low battery, or in background.
• Home sift adapts decoding and motion to warmth and battery; short landscape/square photos support full-card swipes with idle hints layered above content.
• Fixed daily 20-photo batches crediting the bar but not always pet coins or the cloud; rewards sync sooner. Blur/Screenshot/Burst let you swipe the whole card area like filters—including empty margins.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-05-08

• Pet mood now declines more slowly so your companion stays with you longer.
• Cleanup opens Blur first; Blur and Burst are easier to find in sensible order; gift buttons are aligned; Blur and Sort cards keep photo corners flush with their frames.
• Burst: swipe to organize photos with swipe-down undo like Sort and Blur; fullscreen layout, end-of-set undo, motion, and optional sound and haptics match those flows; the list shows a light idle pull-to-refresh hint; removed the "recently finished" section and trimmed noisy top banners.
• Video avoids audio until playback is ready, and returning to the tab reuses prepared clips when it can.
• Staging hints, the launch "loading video" line, and daily reminders are shorter and localized more widely; Simplified Chinese reminders rotate between friendly lines.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-05-07

• Added swipe-down undo during sorting so you can quickly reverse the last action.
• Fixed a number of known issues and improved overall stability.
