PhoPick

Photo cleanup should not feel like endless scrolling. PhoPick turns a crowded photo library into a clear, fast, and controlled cleanup flow. In Random Cleanup, swipe left to move a photo or video to Pending Deletion, or swipe right to keep it. You can also clean up by date or album, so a large library becomes smaller, manageable batches. For bursts, repeated scenes, and near-duplicate compositions, PhoPick runs on-device similarity analysis. It uses dHash perceptual hashing, average color, and a 3x3 color-grid summary to group adjacent similar photos. Within each group, PhoPick also scores sharpness with Sobel gradients, then factors in exposure, contrast, and image entropy to mark a suggested keeper. Deletion stays in your hands. Rejected items first go to Pending Deletion, where you can review estimated space savings, restore items, and confirm deletion through Photos only when you are ready. PhoPick helps you: Swipe left to reject and right to keep photos and videos Compare bursts, repeated scenes, and similar photos Clean up by random items, dates, or albums Use quality scoring as a keeper reference Review rejected items before deletion Track cleanup progress, deleted items, and saved space Make your photo library feel lighter, one swipe at a time.
