About Backspace - Photo Cleaner
Your photos and videos are quietly filling up your phone. Backspace helps you take that space back, one swipe at a time. Backspace sorts your camera roll by file size, so the biggest space wasters show up first. Swipe left to clear, swipe right to keep. A few swipes can free gigabytes in seconds, without digging through thousands of photos by hand. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device. No account, no sign up, no uploads, no ads, no tracking. Your photos never leave your phone, and nothing is ever collected. Just a clean, fast tool that respects your privacy. HOW IT WORKS - See exactly how much storage your photos and videos are using - Start with the largest files, where the quick wins are - Swipe to sort: left to delete, right to keep - Review everything before it is removed, with the standard delete confirmation - Watch the gigabytes add up as you go KEEP IT CLEAN Once the big files are cleared, the chronological view helps you stay on top of it. Sweep through your library by month, week, quarter, or year, so a few swipes now and then keep things lean. Small effort, big impact. Reclaim your storage with Backspace.
What’s new
Version 1.1.0 · Updated August 31, 2026
Take a proper look before anything leaves your library. • Tap a photo or video in your 'To Delete' or 'Kept' list to open it full screen, and send it back to review right from there if you change your mind. • Select mode: tap items or drag across them to pick several at once, then send them all back or free up just what you picked. • Sort either list by size or by date taken. • A tidier top bar, a confirmation step before you clear every choice on a list, and a grid that now fills the full width of your screen.
