## What is This Time Last Year?

You know that notification. "Storage Almost Full." The one that keeps coming back no matter how many times you dismiss it. Twenty thousand photos, and the whole library at once is too big to face. So you don't. And it grows.

This Time Last Year shows you every photo you took on today's date, across all your years. Keep what matters, clear the rest, and close the app in five minutes. Tomorrow it gives you the next day.

THE SHIFT
This makes it small. One date. A handful of moments. And somewhere in the tidying, something unexpected happens. You start looking forward to it. Not for the cleanup. For the photos. A minute each morning, and suddenly you are aware of how much time has passed. How much has changed. How much is worth keeping.

SMARTER TRIAGE
Blurry shots, screenshots, and burst photos get quietly identified with advisory badges. You always decide what stays. The app only ever suggests.

BATCH TRIAGE
Long-press to mark photos one at a time, or use select mode to mark many at once. Mark all blurry shots, all screenshots, or any mix, then delete together in one confirmation.

FULL SCREEN VIEWER
Tap any photo to fill the screen. Swipe through all your years without stopping. Found one worth sending? Share it in a tap.

THREE QUIET THEMES
Warm Cream, Dusty Rose, or Slate and Fog. Choose the one that feels like yours.

BUILT TO BE TRUSTED
Everything happens on your phone. Your photos are never uploaded, never analyzed on a server, never sold or shared. No subscription quietly renewing in the background. Pay once, own it.

### 5/5 — More Than a Photo Cleanup App

*2026-06-28*

We all take thousands of photos over the years, and eventually you forget what’s even sitting in your camera roll. This app is like a trip down memory lane, reminding you of photos you completely forgot you had. It’s also a great way to clean up your storage by getting rid of pictures you no longer need, like random screenshots or even photos with an ex-girlfriend you forgot were still there. 😂 It’s made organizing my photo library so much easier while bringing back some great memories along the way. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the feedback! Glad you are enjoying the app!  Also, the ex-girlfriend pics is SO real! 😂

### 5/5 — 🤯 Finally!
