Grid View: Select photos one at a time or select multiple photos at once by swiping across. Single Photo View: Swipe up to delete. Swipe back and forth between photos to determine which photos you want to purge from your library. Shake to undo! Today View Widget: Keep an eye on your photo count when you're not using the app. Simplify photo management, delete photos lightning fast, get rid of screenshots, duplicates, and bad photos, and free up memory on your iPhone and iPad. You can kiss (or hiss) these errors goodbye: "Cannot Take Video" "Cannot Take Photo" "Not Enough Storage" "Storage Almost Full" Photo hoarders rejoice! /\__ /\ (=^_^=) Meow at us @purrgeapp on Twitter. Enjoy!
