## What is Space Saver?

Space Saver helps you reclaim iPhone and iCloud storage by finding near-duplicate photo and video bursts - the dozens of nearly identical shots your camera loves to create - and making it easy to clean them up safely.

HOW IT WORKS
- Pick Photos, Videos, or Auto and let Space Saver scan your library a month at a time.
- Every scan runs entirely on-device using Apple's Vision framework - your photos and videos never leave your phone.
- Space Saver clusters bursts, analyzes sharpness and similarity, and scores every shot so you always see exactly how much storage you could free up.
- Scanning and reviewing results is always free, for your whole library.

SMART, SAFE CLEANUP
- Favorites are never touched. Photos and videos you've marked with a heart are automatically protected.
- A simple aggressiveness slider lets you decide how conservative or thorough the cleanup should be, applied retroactively across every scan.
- Nothing is deleted without your explicit confirmation. Deleted items land in "Recently Deleted", where they can be restored for 30 days - just like any manual deletion.

WORKS IN THE BACKGROUND
- Auto mode works through your library month by month, photos then videos, picking up wherever it left off.
- Scans keep running in the background, with progress visible right on your Lock Screen.

Unlocking the ability to actually delete duplicates requires a Full Access subscription (new subscribers get a 7-day free trial, then it auto-renews monthly - price shown in the app). Scanning, browsing your library, and seeing how much space you could save always stays free. Manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your Apple ID account settings. Restore Purchases is available in Settings.
