DustFox: Photo Cleaner
Delete duplicates, free space
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Tell it how much space you need and get a plan. Finds duplicates, repeats from WhatsApp, blurry shots and heavy videos — all on-device, no account, no uploads.
DustFox finds the redundant frames in your library and gives you back space on your iPhone and iPad. Everything runs on your device: your photos never reach a server, and you are never asked for an account. Scanning works entirely offline.
TELL IT HOW MUCH SPACE YOU NEED
Say "I need 5 GB" and DustFox builds the plan that gets there with the least regret: exact copies and burst extras first, then old screenshots, lossless conversions last. Every step is listed and can be switched off; iOS asks once to confirm all deletions.
IT TELLS YOU WHERE TO START
The storage card shows how much room is left on the device and how much of it your photos and videos are eating. Right below it sit the three methods that usually free the most: Duplicate Photos, Live Photos and Shrink Videos. The other seven are a little further down.
METHODS THAT FREE SPACE WITHOUT DELETING
• Shrink Videos — your iPhone has to encode in real time while recording, so it deliberately uses a high bitrate. DustFox re-encodes the very same frames with HEVC, unhurried; resolution and smoothness stay put, the file shrinks. On iOS 26 the queue keeps running in the background.
• Compressible Photos — the same frame, in less space, at a quality difference you cannot see.
• Live Photos — drops the motion, keeps the frame.
METHODS THAT FIND WHAT TO DELETE
• Duplicate Photos — groups identical and similar frames using DCT fingerprints. Which frame survives is decided by a jury of measures — sharpness, exposure, resolution, file size — and you can inspect how the vote went, measure by measure.
• Blurry Shots — out of focus or shaken.
• Large Videos, Large Photos — the biggest space eaters first.
• Screenshots — the screen captures that piled up.
• Sent to You — WhatsApp, Telegram and downloads. When the same image arrived more than once, one tap selects the extras; filter by source and by month.
• Swipe to Clean — left to delete, right to keep. A frame you keep is never shown again.
NO MEMORY LOST BY ACCIDENT
Everything you delete is moved to the "Recently Deleted" album in Apple Photos and waits there for 30 days. DustFox does not hide this: it says on screen that device space is only reclaimed once you empty that album.
IT WORKS WITH WHAT IS ACTUALLY ON THE DEVICE
If you use iCloud Photos, frames that live in the cloud take up no device space. By default DustFox only lists frames whose original is on the device — the only group that truly frees space when deleted. Flip the iCloud switch to see the whole library.
PRIVACY
Every scan, comparison and compression runs on your iPhone. There is no account and no advertising or tracking SDK. Apart from the Pro purchase, the only thing sent is anonymous usage statistics, which you can turn off in Settings.
GALLERY REPORT CARD
Your first scan gives your gallery a title — "Screenshot Collector", "Group Chat Veteran" — and a card to share. It holds only numbers, never a photo. New card themes are earned as you free space.
WIDGET AND WEEKLY DIGEST
The Home Screen and Lock Screen widget shows free space and what DustFox can free; a tap takes you straight to the plan. Optionally, once a week and only if something has piled up, a one-sentence notification tells you how many screenshots and received images were added. No server — everything stays on the device.
FREE AND PRO
DustFox is free to download. Screenshots are always unlimited; deletion methods share a free allowance of 30 items and conversion methods a separate 5. DustFox Pro removes every limit and comes two ways: a yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Family Sharing included.
The yearly subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it in your Apple ID account settings.
