CleanLens is a private, intelligent photo cleanup app built to help you reclaim storage without risking the memories that matter. Clean your library with confidence using smart detection, guided review, and powerful organization tools designed for large photo libraries. What CleanLens helps you find: • Duplicate photos • Similar shots • Screenshots • Large videos • Photo clutter • Storage-heavy media Smart cleanup, not blind deletion: CleanLens groups related items together so you can compare before taking action. Review recommendations, keep the best shots, and decide what moves forward. Advanced review tools: Use smart categorization, sorting, and filters to move through your library faster. Focus on the biggest storage wins, narrow down clutter, and review groups with more control. Private by design: Photo analysis is processed on your device. CleanLens does not require an account, does not upload your photo library to the cloud, and does not automatically delete your photos. Built for safer cleanup: Items are reviewed before deletion, and final deletion happens only after your confirmation through the normal Photos flow. CleanLens unlocks advanced cleanup workflows, including expanded similar photo cleanup, bulk actions, and advanced sorting and filtering tools.
