About Photo Syft: Photo Cleanup
A little cleanup. Every day. Photo Syft helps you clean up your photo library a day at a time. Revisit photos and videos from this date in past years, keep what you want, and review old receipts, blurry shots, and extras before deleting. Clearing out what you don't need may help reduce your cloud storage costs. Photo Syft works on your device without uploading your photos or sending usage analytics. Try three cleanup dates free, then pay once for permanent access. No subscription. A day at a time Browse by year or pick another date in the calendar. Use the grid or go one by one. Zoom in, compare photos side by side, and check your selection before deleting. Favorites need an extra confirmation. Set a daily reminder if it helps. The Home Screen widget shows your weekly activity. Photo Syft shows photos and videos from past years; current-year items won't appear. One payment. No subscription. Try three dates from your photo library free, with no time limit. A date counts once after you successfully delete something. Browsing and keeping photos don't count. After that, pay once for permanent access to all features. There's no automatic charge. Existing owners keep full access. Before you buy more cloud storage Clear out photos you don't need before deciding to upgrade your plan. Track deleted items and their estimated size. Your total usage and storage plan determine whether you can lower your bill. Photo Syft doesn't change your plan. Privacy first Photo Syft doesn't upload your photos or send usage analytics. Your cleanup progress stays on your device. You don't need a Photo Syft account, and there are no ads. Apple handles purchases and verifies access. With selected-photo access, you'll only see the items you've allowed. If you use iCloud Photos, deletions also sync to iCloud and your other devices. Apple Photos and Recently Deleted determine recovery and when space becomes available. Photo Syft doesn't have a separate undo.
