About Download Janitor
your phone, works out what it is and why you downloaded it, and helps you clear out the
ones that have done their job.
WHAT EACH DOWNLOAD IS FOR
Janitor reads PDFs, documents, scans and archives and gives every file a plain answer:
• Action — an invoice to pay, a return label, a form to sign
• Temporary — a ticket for a trip that is over, a code that expired
• Reference — manuals, contracts, statements you will want again
• Important — documents worth protecting
• Replaceable — installers and files you can download again
Every recommendation comes with its reason in plain words. Never a score, never a guess
presented as a fact — when Janitor is unsure, it says "Needs review".
FIND WHAT PILED UP
• Identical copies, even under different names
• Older versions of the same document ("offer_v2", "offer final")
• ZIPs you already extracted next to their folder
• Installers for apps that are already installed
• Failed or incomplete downloads
SEARCH INSIDE YOUR FILES
Full-text search across PDFs, Office documents and scanned images: an invoice number, an
amount, a name, a booking code. Text in scans is recognised on the device. Filter by
type, date, size and what Janitor found.
CLEAN UP WITHOUT FEAR
Cleanup is a review: swipe or tap Delete, Keep, Protect or Later. Nothing is deleted
while you review. At the end you see exactly what is about to go and how much space it
frees, and you can take any of it back. Deletion happens once, after you confirm.
Janitor never deletes anything on its own.
TURN A DOWNLOAD INTO SOMETHING DONE
Reminders before a due date or return deadline. Smart Rename suggests a clear name like
"Telecom_Invoice_2026-09". Open, share or jump to the right app in one tap.
EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
This is not a promise in a policy document, it is a property of the app:
• The app has no internet permission. It cannot upload anything, even by mistake.
• Text recognition runs on the device, with models shipped inside the app.
• No account, no sign-up, no analytics, no ads, no tracking.
• The analysis is excluded from cloud backup and device transfer.
ABOUT FILE ACCESS
To read the whole Downloads folder, Android 11 and later requires "All files access".
Janitor uses it only for the Downloads folder and folders you choose, and explains this
before asking. Prefer not to grant it? Pick individual folders instead.
FREE AND PRO
Free analyses 100 files with every feature switched on, so you see the whole app before
deciding. The allowance is for the lifetime of the app, not a monthly quota, and
everything already analysed keeps working forever. Pro is a single one-time purchase —
no subscription — and removes the limit, analyses new downloads automatically and adds
your own rules.
Download Janitor works offline, on Android 8.0 and later.
