Camera roll overflowing? PhotoTri helps you keep the best and free up space, in a few minutes a day. ON THIS DAY: RELIVE YOUR MEMORIES Every day, rediscover the photos and videos you took on this day in past years. Keep the best ones, favorite them, let the misses go. An optional evening reminder tells you when memories are waiting. SHARE THE BEST Pick up to 10 photos from the day and share them as a carousel on Instagram, WhatsApp and more, with a "7 years ago, to the day" cover. Photos are shared as they are, without their location. SWIPE TO SORT Right to keep, left to delete. Quick Sort serves 20 photos at a time, starting with the easiest to delete: old screenshots, receipts and documents, blurry or missed shots. A live counter shows the space you're freeing. DUPLICATES AND BURSTS PhotoTri finds near-identical photos taken back to back. Tap the one you keep: the others go to the trash. VIDEOS AND STORAGE Find your biggest and oldest videos, and see at a glance what takes up space. NOTHING DELETED BY MISTAKE Everything goes to PhotoTri's trash first: undo, restore, review. Nothing is deleted without your confirmation. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device: no account, no upload, no tracking. Only what you choose to share leaves your phone.
