Build a strict metadata-clean image delivery with neutral filenames, per-file checks and a manifest before sharing the complete batch. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Clean Delivery and select up to 20 imported library images. 2. Build the delivery. Every selected image must pass the strict output checks; inspect the neutral filenames and dimensions. 3. Review all images for visible private content, confirm that review and share the verified batch with its record. Existing library, inspection, cleaning profiles and export tools remain available. Standard temporary exports now use distinct folders, avoiding collisions when different images have the same name. WHAT TO KNOW Metadata cleaning does not remove faces, text or private details visible in pixels. Delivery strips optional retained artist, copyright and capture-date fields. Single-frame images only, up to 40 megapixels each and 500 MB combined input. Save exports before leaving the temporary delivery screen. A checksum identifies bytes, not authenticity. iPhone and iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: ShareClean at Free against Scrubframe's $3.99. Scrubframe's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
