Your iPhone says "Storage Almost Full." Clean Now shows you exactly why — and clears it in minutes. Clean Now scans your camera roll and finds the photos and videos quietly eating your storage: duplicates, near-identical bursts, blurry shots, forgotten screenshots, and oversized videos. Every category tells you how many gigabytes you'd get back, before you delete a thing. SWIPE CLEAN Work through your library one photo at a time, organized month by month so it never feels endless. Swipe left to delete, right to keep. Your decisions are saved — photos you've kept never come back, and you can stop anytime and pick up exactly where you left off. WHAT CLEAN NOW FINDS - Duplicate photos — exact copies stored twice - Similar photos — burst shots and near-identical frames - Blurred photos — out-of-focus shots you'd never keep - Screenshots — receipts, memes, and directions you've long forgotten - Large videos — the biggest files on your phone - Short videos — accidental clips and quick recordings BEFORE ANYTHING IS DELETED - See exact file sizes for every category - Review everything you've selected - Confirm before a single photo is removed PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every scan runs entirely on your device. Your photos are never uploaded, never sent to a server, and never seen by anyone but you. Good to know: deleted photos move to Recently Deleted in the Photos app for 30 days. To recover the storage right away, empty that album. SUBSCRIPTION Clean Now requires an active subscription, and includes a 3-day free trial. Weekly $7.99 or Yearly $39.99. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
