Find the videos taking up space, back up the originals, and clean up with confidence. Haimian is a video organizer for iPhone and iPad. All features in this version are free, with no account required. UNDERSTAND VIDEO STORAGE Browse videos you have authorized and organize them by size, date or resolution. Inspect frame rate, codec and HDR information for local videos. Estimated sizes and information that has not yet been read are clearly identified. BACK UP ORIGINALS Export videos to a folder you choose, external storage or a WebDAV NAS. Follow progress, review errors and retry failed tasks. Retrieve iCloud originals when needed. Streaming transfers can reduce temporary app storage for large files. REVIEW DUPLICATE CANDIDATES Find potential duplicates in Photos and file storage. Preview candidates and choose which items to keep. Names and sizes help find candidates; content is checked further before cleanup. BACK UP BEFORE CLEANUP Export, verification and deletion are separate steps. Deleting videos from Photos requires your confirmation. Exported files stay in your chosen destination. ON-DEVICE PROCESSING No ads, tracking or third-party analytics. Your library is not uploaded to developer servers. You control Photos permissions and folder access, and backups go directly to the storage you select. Choose Follow System, Simplified Chinese or English in Settings. Other system languages use English. iCloud-only originals require a network connection and enough device space. Keep the app in the foreground during streaming transfers. Items in Recently Deleted may still use storage. Deletion from external storage or file providers may be irreversible; check your backups first.
