How it works
- Grant the access you needPhoto Library access is required for scanning and cleanup; other permissions are feature-specific.
- Review the suggestionsCompare originals, check quality, and keep anything important.
- Confirm changesDeletion asks for confirmation. Photos move to Apple Photos’ Recently Deleted, where recovery is time-limited.
Similarity and blur detection can be wrong. Confirm every selection and keep a separate backup of important media. Photos in Recently Deleted are normally recoverable for a limited time. Compression and conversion can change quality or metadata.
Questions people ask
Can I recover a deleted photo?
Items deleted through PhotoKit move to Recently Deleted in Apple Photos, where they can usually be restored for about 30 days. Open Photos promptly; the app cannot directly undo the deletion.
Where are vault items kept?
Vault files are stored locally. You can export a password-protected backup; keep its password because it cannot be reset for you.
What is included for free?
The app shows its current Pro plans and any eligible offer before purchase. Functional cleanup controls may require Pro access.
