Rated 5.0 by people who finally cleaned their camera roll
★★★★★
“I had 14,000 photos and no idea where to start. Two evenings with Clean Cut and my iPhone finally stopped begging me to buy more iCloud.”
★★★★★
“The swiping is weirdly addictive. It picks the sharpest shot out of every burst, so I never lose the good one — I just lose the eleven bad ones.”
★★★★★
“What sold me is that nothing gets deleted behind my back. Everything waits in the review pile until I say go. That's the confidence I needed.”
★★★★★
“Cleanest utility app I've used in years. It feels like an Apple app, and it does its whole job without sending a single photo anywhere.”
★★★★★
“Freed 22 GB before my holiday. Screenshots from 2019 that I will never look at again — gone in about twenty minutes.”
★★★★★
“My camera roll went from chaos to something I actually enjoy scrolling. Worth the lifetime unlock alone.”

Frequently asked questions
Does Clean Cut delete photos without asking?
No. Clean Cut works like a trash folder: everything you swipe away lands in a review pile, and nothing leaves your library until you confirm the deletion yourself.
Do my photos leave my iPhone?
No. The cleanup runs offline on your device, so your photos are never uploaded to a server and no account is required.
How does it pick the best photos to keep?
Clean Cut looks at sharpness of focus, whether you are looking at the camera, and whether you are smiling, then suggests the strongest shot from each group of near-duplicates.
How do I delete duplicate photos on my iPhone?
You can use the built-in Duplicates album in iOS 16+, clean manually, or use a dedicated photo cleaner app. We walk through all three methods — and the step almost everyone misses — in our step-by-step guide.
Read the guideHow much storage can I free up?
It depends on your library, but most people carry thousands of burst shots, retakes and screenshots — clearing those typically frees several gigabytes in one sitting.
How much does Clean Cut cost?
Clean Cut is a free download. Inside the app you can unlock unlimited cleaning with a weekly plan or a one-time lifetime purchase, and you can manage it anytime in iPhone Settings › your name › Subscriptions.
