## What is Swyp?

Swyp is the fastest way to clean your camera roll. Swipe left to delete, swipe right to keep, and free up gigabytes of storage in minutes.

Your library fills up fast with screenshots, blurry shots, duplicates, memes and old videos. Going through thousands of them by hand takes forever. Swyp finds the clutter for you, so all that's left is a quick swipe.

SWIPE TO CLEAN
Go through your photos one at a time. Left to delete, right to keep. No menus, no fuss. Every deck picks up right where you left off.

DELETE DUPLICATES & SIMILAR PHOTOS
Swyp groups identical photos, near-identical shots and bursts together. It highlights the best one, so you can clear the rest in seconds.

CLEAR OUT JUNK
Screenshots, memes, receipts and blurry or out-of-focus photos are found automatically and ready to review.

FIND YOUR BIGGEST VIDEOS
Long videos can take up gigabytes. Swyp shows your largest videos first, so you get the most space back with the fewest swipes.

CLEAN BY MONTH
Jump to any month, revisit a trip or an event, and decide what stays.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your photos never leave your iPhone. Every scan runs on your device. No account, no sign-up and no cloud uploads.

SAFE TO USE
Nothing is deleted until you confirm. Deleted photos go to Recently Deleted in your Photos app, so you can recover them for 30 days.

Keep the moments. Swipe the rest.

### 5/5 — Weirdly nostalgic and fun

*2026-10-12*

Why is it this fun to go through all of your old photos?? The app is great and all, but I didn’t expect to be cheesin this hard / on a walk down memory lane. This is great

**Developer response:** Haha this made my day. That's honestly my favorite part too, I keep finding photos I forgot I took. Thanks for taking the time to write this 🙌

### 5/5 — Easy to use and surprisingly fun

This app not only organizes my camera roll organized, but it’s also pretty fun to use! It’s pretty cathartic getting rid of all the stuff I don’t need in my photos. I highly recommend it!

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-06-21*

I wish it would do videos too but it is a photo cleaner so other than that it’s great.

**Developer response:** The new update lets you clear out your videos too!

### 5/5 — must have!

*2025-12-15*

makes cleaning up your camera roll natural. i always dreaded looking through my camera roll because of the sheer amount of photos (52k and counting) i have on my phone so i keep putting it down until i actually run out of storage. 
the swipe interface is super easy and fun and it vividly reminds me of tinder almost! right to keep, left to delete, nothing complicated. the haptics too were a really nice touch! i found it funny looking back at old photos and sending some to my friends to troll them

### 5/5 — Super satisfying to swipe through old pics

*2025-12-13*

The swiping feature makes this way more fun than the usual “select and delete” thing on iPhone. Lowkey got nostalgic going through old photos.

### 5/5 — Super satisfying to swipe through old pics

*2025-12-12*

I normally don’t write reviews but I had to for this one. I take way too many photos and never delete anything, so my storage is always full. This app made it way easier to go through everything. The UI is clean, and swiping through memories is kinda fun. Definitely keeping it.

### 5/5 — Great App. Love it.
