Photium

Photium turns the thousands of photos you never look at again into something you'll love coming back to. Most of your library is forgotten the moment it's taken. Photium quietly studies your photos on your device and brings the best moments back as beautiful, curated memory channels β the people you love, your trips, the seasons, those busy days, and the ones you'd completely forgotten. Then you just lean back and watch. Swipe through memories like Reels: photos breathe, Live Photos come alive, and there are no decisions to make β only the flow. WHAT MAKES PHOTIUM DIFFERENT β’ Curated memory channels β forgotten ones, favorites, trips, people and seasons, rebuilt every time you open the app β’ A Reels-style feed β swipe up through your memories, one story at a time β’ Concepts β Photium understands what's in your photos (nature, happy, family, concert, travelβ¦) so you can browse any theme as its own feed β’ People β faces are grouped on your device; you just give them names β’ Explore β your trips quietly become a map you can travel back through, with playful levels and badges β’ Search β find any moment by person, place, year, season or concept β’ Home screen widget β a daily memory, right where you'll see it PRIVACY, FOR REAL Everything happens on your device. No account. No tracking. No ads. No servers receive your photos, faces or locations β because there are no servers. Your memories never leave your phone. (Photium only ever asks Apple for a place name using coordinates, and only if you turn that on.) Photium is free. We build it for the love of it β and to keep making thoughtful, private little apps.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Photium at none against Clapo's shown. Clapo's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
