CleanMy®Phone: Careful Cleaner 4+

Very useful tool

This is great!! I was in despair over my photos. Over 12,000, just out of control. Multiple duplicates, dumb videos, including random mistakes like my feet as I’m walking, not realizing my video was on. Lots of what the call “similars,” where I shoot. Scene or person multiple times to get the best shot.....in short, this app temporarily sorts your photos when you hit a category like “similar.” Then it show you the 4 shots of your
Mom that you took at your sister’s wedding and dubs one of them the best. Then I glance at the others, to see if I agree. Usually I agree and hit the button that discards the others. (You can also recover them if you went too fast.) or select a different one. The app is ALWAYS correct on the technical aspects, but you may like one take better because Aunt Judy was in the shot and that’s the only shot you have of them together. Or you can keep several of the “simillars” and dump a few. You’re always in control. You can work on those photos for 10 min while you’re waiting for something. I have dumped almost half my photos in just a couple of weeks using it between other activities. Whoever developed this is my kind of a genius.

Great product. Bad subscription.

Once or twice a year, I try to clear out my unnecessary photos from the photos app. Every time, I make it no more 10 minutes before I quit out of frustration and accept the fact that I’ll have junk photos, videos, and screenshots stored with the rest of my photos for life. Gemini solves this issue.

I think I spent probably a solid 30-45 minutes yesterday decluttering my photo collection. I know that sounds rough, but I cleared thousands of unnecessary files - something that would have previously taken numerous hours. Not only that, they almost make this process fun with swiping your photos to the keep pile or the trash pile. The way the app organized groups of photos was phenomenal - sometimes I’ll take 20 photos to get that 1 good one. With this app, I’m able to delete the other 19 in one tap.

What I absolutely loathe about this app is the subscription model. I’m beating a dead horse here, but this is a product that we should be able to pay for once. With how great it is, I’d easily pay $20 for this app and keep it for life. Unfortunately, that’s not an option. Thankfully, because of the its efficiency, I was able to cancel the subscription before my trial expired all while successfully decluttering my phone.

Nothing within the app is free

I downloaded this app for 3 specific reasons: 1. For the editing tools, like the option to blur the backgrounds of my photos. 2. For the “clean up albums & clear up space” feature. This automatic grouping feature is capable of automatically sorting through your albums and selecting things like blurry, low quality images that you can delete to clear up space. 3. Because it was SUPPOSED to be free. That’s why it gets 1 star — it was listed as a free app yet there wasn’t any of the features available unless you sign up for a monthly MINIMUM fee of $4.99. This means you download this app thinking some of these cool tools are supposed to be free yet none are. It only starts you on a “free trial” that will charge you for the app “renewal” automatically unless you catch it & cancel it. So basically useless as a “free app.” The fact that this app was intentionally misleading is what makes me lose respect & made me totally u willing to pay for the services within the app. I don’t like feeling scammed. I’m going 2 download a truly “free” app with similar features now. I also found snap seed, which I already found more useful (although it’s not got these exact features) but I’ll be hunting a non-misleading app to assist in clearing up photo space… or I’ll just manually go through & delete the duplicates, and accidental snaps that clutter my phone. That might be more time consuming but at least it’s free!

Ответ разработчика ,

Thank you so much for leaving your feedback. Gemini Photos was never advertised as a free application. Gemini Photos is in a free category because it offers an in-app purchase plan and can be installed for free, so users could try it out before making their decision about the purchase. It offers a three-day unlimited trial. According to App Store rules, apps that offer an in-app purchase model are sold in the free category. The information about the free trial is available under the Subscription and Pricing section in the description of Gemini on App Store. You can also see prices in the Information section under In-App Purchases.
