Your camera roll is full. You know it. Every time your phone says "Storage Almost Full" you feel that familiar guilt — thousands of photos you've never looked at, blurry duplicates, screenshots you forgot about, memories buried under noise. You've been meaning to sort through them for years. Petal makes it something you'll actually look forward to. Set your ritual. Choose a day, a time, and how many photos to review. Every week (or month), Petal gently reminds you it's time. No pressure. No overwhelm. Just you, your memories, and a few quiet minutes. Then swipe. Love me — keep it forever. Love me not — let it go. One photo at a time, oldest first, at whatever pace feels right. Swipe into albums. Double tap to favourite a memory. Finish whenever you're ready. At the end of your session, Petal asks once — release these photos? — and it's done. PETAL IS DIFFERENT Most photo cleaner apps feel like chores. Petal feels like self-care. There are no harsh deletion buttons. No anxiety. No accidentally losing something you love. Just a gentle, beautiful ritual that slowly, session by session, brings your camera roll back to life — and frees up the space your phone has been begging for. FEATURES Weekly or monthly scheduled sessions Swipe right to keep, left to release Swipe down to sort into albums Double tap to favourite a memory Batch deletion — confirm once at the end, never mid-session Finish early whenever you want Chronological order — oldest photos first 100% private — everything stays on your device, always YOUR MEMORIES DESERVE CARE Petal is for those whose phone is full of moments they can't face deleting — because what if that blurry photo is the last one of something? What if they regret it? With Petal, you never have to decide in a rush. You sit with each memory, just for a second, and you decide with intention. Love me. Or love me not. Free to download. Petal Premium unlocks unlimited sessions. £2.99/month or £19.99/year. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
