No space left on your phone? I’ve been there - that’s exactly why I created this app (and why I use it myself all the time) Free up to 40% of your device’s storage: • Smart cleanup powered by AI - it finds similar, blurry, and bad shots, so you can keep only the best photos • Sort videos by size to quickly remove the biggest space-hoggers • Swipe-to-delete mode makes cleanup feel intuitive - almost like a game • Sort photos and videos by date or size to find and delete junk faster • Instant access to media from messengers and social apps - remove it all in just a few taps I hope this helps you clean up your gallery and save some much-needed space. If you have feedback or run into any bugs, drop me a message via Settings (gear icon) → Contact me. If you decide to use the Premium functionality (this is optional), payment will be made from your iTunes account.

Authenticator
Read full descriptionHide full description
This app generates the six-digit codes you need when a service asks for a second step at sign-in. Scan a QR code once, and the code is there whenever you come back. Everything happens on your device. There is no account to create and nothing to sign up for. What it does Generates time-based one-time codes (TOTP) that refresh every thirty seconds. Works with any service that supports authenticator apps — email providers, social networks, cloud storage, developer tools, crypto platforms, work accounts and more. Adding an account takes a few seconds: scan the QR code the service shows you, or type in the setup key by hand if there is no code to scan. Codes work without an internet connection. They are calculated on your phone from the time and the key, so a weak signal or no signal at all makes no difference. You can rename accounts, reorder the list, and remove what you no longer use. If you would rather not leave your codes open on the screen, the app can be locked with Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode.
