Swipe right to keep, left to bin. Nothing's deleted until you say so, and your photos never leave your phone.
Your camera roll is full of blurry shots, old screenshots and twelve versions of the same sunset. Sift makes clearing it out quick, and weirdly satisfying.
Swipe right to keep. Swipe left to bin. That's it.
NOTHING GOES UNTIL YOU SAY SO
Binned photos wait in the bin until you're ready. Changed your mind? Undo, or tap anything in the bin to put it back. When you're happy, delete the lot with one confirmation. They'll still sit in Recently Deleted for 30 days, just in case.
GO STRAIGHT FOR THE CLUTTER
- Screenshots, screen recordings, bursts, long videos, Live Photos, selfies and more
- Limit it to a date range, like last summer's trip
- Shuffle, or go oldest or newest first
- See each item's date, place, type and size before you decide
- See how much space the bin will free up
YOUR PHOTOS STAY ON YOUR PHONE
Sift never uploads your library, and there's no account to make. It works with iCloud Photos too, downloading originals only when you look at them.
KEPT MEANS KEPT
Anything you keep is skipped next time, so every session picks up where you left off.

You know that looming feeling you get every time you open Photos, that you really, really need to purge all those blurry photos, accidental screenshots, and photos of weirdly shaped vegetables that make only you laugh? And you know how you still haven’t done it because there’s no way to do it that isn’t a pain?Sift solves that, making it fast and easy to say yes or no to each individual photo, and then delete all the garbage at once. Grocery store line: swipe swipe swipe. Waiting for the kids to get out of school: swipe swipe swipe. On the toilet: swipe swipe swipe. And just like that, 5k photos triaged. Now you’ve got all the important photos of your kids, and none of those screenshots you take every time you almost drop your phone. And maybe still a few of the weird vegetables. That carrot looks like it’s crossing its legs…
