Screenshot Clean finds every screenshot copy text from and lets you clean up in seconds — one swipe at a time. HOW IT WORKS Open the app, choose a time range, and Screenshot Clean instantly shows you everything worth reviewing. Swipe down to keep, swipe up to delete. Swipe left to copy text. That's it. COPY TEXT — SAVE THE INFO, DITCH THE IMAGE Saved a screenshot just to remember a phone number, address, promo code, or a message from iMessage? Use Copy Text to extract the information in one tap — paste it straight into Notes, iMessage, Safari, or anywhere else — then delete the screenshot forever. No more keeping photos just because they contain useful text. WHAT SCREENSHOT CLEAN FINDS - Screenshots from any app — Safari, Maps, Messages, social media - Simulator and developer screenshots - Old captures from weeks, months, or years ago FAST, PRIVATE, AND FREE Everything happens on your device. Your photos never leave your phone. No account required, no subscriptions, no uploads. Screenshot Clean works with your existing iOS photo permissions — full control stays with you. START CLEANING IN SECONDS Choose your time range → Review with a swipe → Free up space immediately. Stop scrolling through thousands of photos looking for things to delete. Let Screenshot Clean do the work.
