Your iPhone is full. Cleanup fixes that in minutes. Cleanup is a photo, video and contacts cleaner that finds what is eating your storage, shows you exactly how much space it takes, and lets you free it up in one tap. Everything is analysed on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and you always decide what goes. FREE UP SPACE IN ONE TAP • Smart Clean: review and remove the clutter Cleanup finds, all at once • Duplicate photos and duplicate videos, grouped so you keep the best one • Similar photos and burst photos: keep your favourite, clear the rest • Large photos and large videos: see the biggest space hogs first • Screenshots, screen recordings and Live Photos in their own tidy lists • A live total of how much space you can free before you delete anything SWIPE TO CLEAN Go through your library the fun way. Swipe right to keep, swipe left to archive, then review everything before it is deleted. Filter by screenshots, selfies, people, pets, food, nature, travel, documents, memes, blurry or dark photos, or jump in at random. It is the fastest way to declutter your camera roll. COMPRESS PHOTOS AND VIDEOS Shrink big files without losing what matters. Choose High, Balanced or Maximum Savings, see the estimated savings first, and keep your original until you decide to replace it. A smart video compressor and photo compressor in one. PRIVATE VAULT Hide private photos, videos and contacts behind a PIN and Face ID. Vault items are encrypted and stay on your device. CLEAN UP YOUR CONTACTS • Find and merge duplicate contacts • Spot contacts with no name, phone number, email or birthday • Browse birthdays and back up your contacts, then restore them any time STAY CLEAN, EFFORTLESSLY • Live Activity and Dynamic Island progress while Cleanup scans • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets showing space you can free • Optional weekly or monthly reminders with real numbers • Your impact: total space freed, cleanups and your weekly streak PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos, videos and contacts never leave your device.

Sync Contacts for Google
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keep your iPhone contacts and Google Contacts up to date with two-way sync or a one-way direction you choose. REVIEW BEFORE YOU SYNC See proposed additions, updates and removals before your first sync. Compare individual contact fields and choose the iPhone account or list you want to sync. You can also preview later syncs and enable review before applying changes. SYNC YOUR WAY Choose two-way sync, iPhone to Google, or Google to iPhone. Control automatic sync and deletion syncing separately. Background timing is managed by iOS and depends on device settings, network access and system conditions. CONTACT SAFETY Local safety backups are saved before your first sync and before updates or removals. Export backups as vCard files for manual recovery in Contacts or Google Contacts. Importing a backup adds contacts; it does not automatically undo a sync. Deletion protection pauses unusually large removals for review. CLEAR STATUS See completed changes, inspect activity and check sync health. The app explains connection problems and Google update limits so you can decide what to do next. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Contact data moves directly between your device and your Google account. Our scheduling service does not receive your address book. Google sign-in tokens are stored in your device’s Keychain and sent only to Google. Optional background scheduling uses a push identifier and scheduling information; see our privacy policy for details. No contact limit, advertisements or subscriptions. The app interface is currently available in English. A read-only preview with sample data is available before connecting Google. Photos, groups and notes are not currently synced. This independent app is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google. Google, Google Contacts and Gmail are trademarks of Google LLC.
