It does not work . Every time I click in it to clean it closes out! What a rip off !! ### 1/5 — How do i cancel? *2023-02-25, version 2.0.9* Please cancel my app. I do not want this charged to my card. I think taking the app off my machine will not stop you from charging me. Am i wrong? ### 1/5 — Refund and cancel *2023-02-07, version 2.0.8* Refund my money asap !! ### 1/5 — I can’t even open the app *2022-09-06, version 2.0.8* I just paid for one week + 3 day free trial and never got the 3 day free trial period. I was just charged right away. Also every time I open the app it crashes and now I’ve paid for this thing that doesn’t even work. ### 1/5 — TidyUp *2022-07-10, version 2.0.8* Too confusing. Not enough instructions: ### 1/5 — Nope *2022-07-02, version 2.0.8* I thought this app actually noticed duplicates. It recognizes similar and that’s not good. I still have to make sure it ya a dup. Does not save time at all. I might as well go through them the manual way 🤷🏽‍♀️🤔🙄 ### 1/5 — Photos *2022-06-11, version 2.0.8* Selection to remove photos didn’t work ### 1/5 — Purchase *2022-06-04, version 2.0.8* I don’t want to buy this how I cannot use it and get my money back ### 1/5 — Massive Paywall *2022-05-25, version 2.0.8* Simple features such as swipe-to-delete and select-all are locked behind a paywall! If the photo viewer that comes with the phone can select-all for free, why doesn't this app? Horrible design choice just to make money. ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-05-18, version 2.0.8* Only allows you to clean up your photos once manually and then won’t let you do Anything else unless you purchase the App. What a Scam!!! ### 1/5 — Remi Buskirk’s problem *2022-04-18, version 2.0.8* So basicly I can’t get in every time I try it kikes me out so ya. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2022-01-17, version 1.0.7* It’s not letting me delete anymore I want my money back this app is atrocious ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Is not free to use *2026-04-08, version 2.1.5* Sure free to download and it takes your credit card info to use a few days then automatically charges you, actually cloud storage is cheaper ### 1/5 — Why *2024-02-15, version 2.1.1* Y’all literally have a time limit if I don’t pay. Like who would want that I’m about to go find another app! ### 1/5 — Annoying *2024-02-03, version 2.1.1* Isn’t very good at finding duplicates, kind of chooses pictures taken around the same time and offers to delete them. Also very expensive weekly subscription that is easy to forget about. This app has cost me 10$ and I shouldn’t have ever downloaded it. It’s not helpful. ### 1/5 — Bad app *2024-01-15, version 2.1.1* Bad app selected most my good photos want delete 😃 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-12-14, version 2.1.1* I spent hours using this app to delete duplicate photos and large videos. Then, I emptied the trash. But none of them were actually deleted from my phone or iCloud. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2023-11-22* Couldn’t find one duplicate photo in 10000 plus photos. Hard to believe people would pay for this. ### 1/5 — used to be good *2023-09-12, version 2.1.0* used to be able to swipe unlimitedly, but now you only get like 20. completely outrageous and i already spent so much time sorting stuff and now it’s gone to waste and i have to find a new app that does the same as this app but free ### 1/5 — Subscription scam *2023-07-07, version 2.0.9* Wants you to sign up for “Pro” for $4.99 a week. Otherwise it is 60 (sixty) photos saved, then wait an HOUR to save another 60 photos. ### 1/5 — Trash *2023-06-26, version 2.0.9* This app is trash DONT DOWNLOAD ### 1/5 — A *2023-06-08, version 2.0.9* It does not clean my phone storage ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — A Very Good Application *2022-08-02, version 2.0.8* 5 Stars ### 5/5 — Works great *2022-04-12, version 2.0.8* Keeps my computer in safe ### 5/5 — Subscription *2022-04-12, version 2.0.8* wonderful app!!! ### 5/5 — Battery saver! ? *2022-04-12, version 2.0.8* This app is very useful ### 4/5 — Clear Space Effectively *2022-05-11, version 2.0.8* App finds and deletes dupe files. Algorithms good, custom, not cut and paste "bubble sort" like competitors. Would be five stars, just waiting for the update to masterclass performancd...cloud integration plus bin type undo with online encrypted trash. (secure Trash cryptainer not even on board how tactical is that?) ### 4/5 — Ad problem *2022-01-15, version 1.0.7* It’s a very useful and easy app but there’s just too many ads, everyone I do something I get an ad, I think you guys should calm down on that ### 3/5 — Won’t delete? *2023-06-13, version 2.0.9* It doesn’t delete anything from my photos? Idk why. ### 3/5 — huh? *2022-01-04, version 1.0.5* i got the app to free up space and i got up to 40 in my trash album then i couldn’t do anything else. i tried to actually delete the photos but it wanted me to but something to do it! ya no thanks i’d rather go through my photos and not have to pay anything to delete MY photos. it’s a good app but i don’t like how you have limited swipes and can’t even throw away photos. ### 2/5 — It doesn’t do anything *2022-05-06, version 2.0.8* Doesn’t delete from album.
