# Photo & Video Cleaner vs Basic Strategy

The clearest difference is rating: Photo & Video Cleaner at 4.8 against Basic Strategy's 4.2. Photo & Video Cleaner also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (12K vs 5). Basic Strategy's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Photo & Video Cleaner sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per year and Basic Strategy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Photo & Video Cleaner holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Photo & Video Cleaner has 12K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of Photo & Video Cleaner's written reviews are positive against 100% of Basic Strategy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Photo & Video Cleaner ships an update weekly, Basic Strategy every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
