SpaceSift: Photo Cleaner
Remove Duplicates & Free Space
$2.99
Free up gigabytes in minutes. Similar photos, duplicates, blurry shots & large videos found privately on-device. One-time purchase. No subscription ever.
Your iPhone storage is full. Again.
You've deleted apps and cleared caches but photos keep coming back. The real culprits are the 12 near-identical shots from your last trip, the blurry burst photos, the hundreds of screenshots you'll never look at again. SpaceSift finds them all, so you keep the memories that matter.
Unlike other cleanup apps, SpaceSift processes everything on your device. Your photos never leave your phone. No cloud uploads, no analytics, no tracking. Ever.
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps to a cleaner library:
1. SCAN — SpaceSift analyzes your entire photo library on-device in under a minute
2. REVIEW — Browse duplicates, similar shots, blurry photos, screenshots, and large videos by category
3. DELETE — Photos go to Recently Deleted — recoverable for 30 days if you change your mind
SMART DUPLICATE DETECTION
SpaceSift uses a two-stage pipeline to find exact duplicates other apps miss. First, it matches files by content hash. Then it catches re-encoded copies using intelligent thumbnail comparison. Even photos saved from messaging apps or edited and re-saved are identified.
SIMILAR PHOTO FINDER
Took 15 shots trying to get the right one? SpaceSift groups similar photos using Apple's Vision framework running on the Neural Engine. It automatically suggests the sharpest, highest-quality shot to keep — you just confirm.
BLURRY PHOTO DETECTION
SpaceSift scores every photo for sharpness using advanced blur analysis. It even accounts for faces in the frame, so a slightly soft landscape with a sharp subject won't be flagged by mistake.
SCREENSHOT CLEANUP
Old screenshots pile up fast. SpaceSift groups them by visual similarity so you can review and remove entire batches at once — without scrolling through years of camera roll.
VIDEO SPACE RECOVERY
Videos are the biggest storage hogs on any iPhone. SpaceSift shows all your videos sorted by file size, so you can preview and remove the ones silently eating your storage.
