Your photos never leave your iPhone. All processing happens locally using Apple's PhotoKit framework. No account required, no cloud uploads, ever.

Works seamlessly with iCloud Photos. When you delete photos, they sync across all your Apple devices and free iCloud storage too.
Deleted photos go to the iOS Recently Deleted album first. You have 30 days to recover anything you deleted by mistake before it's gone permanently.
No setup, no configuration, no slow scanning. Open the app and start swiping immediately. Clean your entire camera roll in one session.
Download for free and use the core cleanup features forever. No monthly fees, no paywalls on the swipe interface, no tricks.

Swype Photo Cleaner requires iOS 16 or later. This means it works with iPhone 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and all newer models. It does not work on iPad or older iPhones running iOS 15 or earlier.

It depends on your library. Users with years of accumulated screenshots, burst photos, and duplicates often recover 5–15 GB or more in a single session. Even if you've been fairly organized, most people are surprised by how much storage screenshots and burst photos consume.
