Selects: The Smarter Way to Clean Your Camera Roll Let’s be honest: you currently have 28,000 photos on your phone. 15 of them are identical shots of your dog trying to get one where they aren't blurry. 400 are screenshots of recipes you will never cook. And your iCloud storage is begging for mercy. Selects is here to fix your camera roll, and we’ve made it so fast and satisfying that it actually feels like a game. 100% Private & Paranoia-Proof Before we get to the fun stuff, let’s address the two things you’re actually worried about: privacy and accidentally deleting your wedding photos. No Servers, No Spying: Our AI runs entirely offline on your device using Apple's Neural Engine. We don't see your photos, and your data never leaves your phone. The Triple Safety Net: Selects cannot permanently delete anything without your explicit permission. Swiping just moves photos to a staging Bin. Swiped by mistake? Tap the Undo button. Emptied the Bin by mistake? Don't panic. Everything simply moves to Apple’s native "Recently Deleted" folder for 30 days before vanishing forever. You are completely safe here. Zero-Thought Swiping We got rid of tiny checkmarks and confusing menus. In Selects, organizing is pure reflex. Just swipe a card UP or DOWN to send a photo to the Bin. Don’t think about direction, just action. Swiped your grandma by mistake? Our bulletproof "Undo" button instantly brings her back. An AI That Actually Gets It Our on-device AI Lab scans your library to find the clutter so you don't have to. It automatically flags blurry shots, isolates receipts and screenshots, and rounds up your Animals. It even finds your absolute best, high-aesthetic shots (we call them "Diamonds") so you can Favorite them all with one tap. Heavy Hitters Need to free up space right this second? The "Storage Savers" mission rounds up your absolute largest videos and files so you can reclaim Gigabytes of space in three swipes. The Duplicate "Magic Wand" Staring at 10 identical group selfies trying to figure out which one is best? Let the AI do it. Tap the "Magic Wand" and Selects will instantly select all the blurry, blinking, and inferior duplicates for the Bin, leaving only the perfect "Hero" shot untouched. Album Builder (A Safe Curation Zone) Building an album for your trip to Italy shouldn't be a chore. Enter Album Builder mode: pick a destination, and just swipe photos to add them. Nothing gets deleted here, and you can even create brand-new Apple Photos albums on the fly without leaving the app. Enter the Time Machine Check your dashboard for the Time Machine heatmap to see your entire photo history at a glance. Tap any month to instantly jump back in time and clean up that specific era. We even built a Home Screen Widget that surfaces random memories from over a year ago to remind you what's buried in there. Panic-Free Deletion & Total Privacy Scared of the delete button? Don't be. When you empty the Selects Bin, your photos are simply moved to Apple's native "Recently Deleted" folder for 30 days before vanishing forever. You have plenty of time to change your mind. Furthermore, all our AI magic happens strictly offline on your device using Apple's Neural Engine. We never see your photos, and we never touch your data. Stop paying for extra cloud storage just to host 4,000 memes from 2019. Download Selects and get your camera roll back.

About

Brollr for BlackBox Global

Features
Read full description

Brollr is a free companion app for BlackBox Global stock footage contributors. Prep your clips on iPhone or iPad and upload them to BlackBox over FTP, with the technical requirements handled for you. AI keywording is an optional paid add-on, and the free prep-and-upload workflow works without it. FREE TO PREP AND UPLOAD Preparing clips to BlackBox requirements and getting them onto the portal is free forever. Drop in a clip from your photo library, trim it, and Brollr converts the frame rate, strips the audio, exports at BlackBox-accepted specs, and uploads over TLS. A PICKER MADE FOR STOCK FOOTAGE Filter your library by landscape or portrait, hold a clip to play a preview, and swipe across clips to select several at once. Clips that BlackBox will not accept are marked with the reason before you import them, and you can see which clips need to be downloaded from iCloud first. BUILT FOR BLACKBOX REQUIREMENTS Brollr re-encodes your clips to BlackBox's spec automatically: supported frame rates from 23.98 to 60 fps with NTSC and integer families handled separately, audio stripped, duration trimmed to 5–59 seconds, size limits enforced, 4K and HD with HDR preserved or converted to SDR. iPhone footage is usually recorded at a variable frame rate, which BlackBox rejects. Brollr converts it to a constant supported frame rate, so your iPhone clips pass review. SLOW MOTION, DONE RIGHT Shot at 60 or 59.94 fps and want to deliver slow motion? Brollr knows which slow-down rates are valid for your source (NTSC stays with NTSC, integer stays with integer) and offers only the ones that keep every frame. The result is true native slow motion that BlackBox will accept. BATCH UPLOAD VIA FTP Connect once with your BlackBox FTP credentials and upload the whole batch to portal.blackbox.global over TLS. Tap Upload and set the device down. OPTIONAL: AI KEYWORDING Titles, descriptions, and keywords are the most tedious part of contributing. Brollr has an optional AI that watches your clip and generates a title, a description, keywords, and a filename in seconds. You get 5 free credits every month, and a subscription adds more volume. The free prep-and-upload workflow works without it. YOUR WORKFLOW 1. Import and trim your footage (free) 2. Upload to BlackBox via FTP (free) 3.
