You have nine thousand photos and a full phone. Opening the gallery and trying to pick doesn't work: there are too many, they all look important, and you end up closing it without deleting anything. keepbin turns the problem around. It shows you one photo, at random, full screen. All you have to do is decide about that one. Swipe right and you keep it. It never comes up again. Swipe left and it drops into the bin. NOTHING IS DELETED UNTIL YOU SAY SO The bin is just a waiting list. You can undo, close the app and come back tomorrow: what you binned is still there. When you have had enough, you empty it all at once, and that is where it actually gets deleted, with a single confirmation instead of forty. VIDEOS ARE WHAT TAKE UP ROOM A minute of 4K weighs more than three hundred photos. keepbin mixes them in with everything else, because they are the ones that will really give you your space back. YOUR PHOTOS NEVER LEAVE YOUR PHONE No accounts, no sign-up, no cloud. keepbin never uploads, copies or shares a single one of your photos. Nobody sees them: not us, not anyone. AN HONEST HEADS-UP When you delete, iOS keeps the photos for another 30 days under "Recently Deleted". You can restore them during that time, but the space is not quite yours yet. The app tells you this before and after deleting, because we would rather warn you than promise you space you don't have yet. FREE, AND NOTHING ELSE No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases. In English and Spanish. Works offline.
