Questions

How it works
  1. Allow photo access. Android asks once. You can give access to all photos or only the ones you choose.
  2. Swipe and review. Sort a month, an album or today's new photos, then check the review bin.
  3. Delete and see the result. Confirm once in Android and see exactly how much space came back.
Are my photos uploaded?

No. Duplicates, similar and blurry photos are found on your phone. Your photos and videos are never sent to us or to anyone else.

Can I get a deleted photo back?

On Android 11 and later you can choose the system trash, where photos can be restored for 30 days. Photos deleted permanently cannot be restored. Photos you keep in a cloud backup may be removed there too, depending on your backup app.

Is there a daily limit?

No. Swiping is unlimited in the free version, and there are no ads while you swipe.

What does Pro add?

Unlimited similar photo groups with the sharpest pick, blurry photos, video and photo compression, detailed statistics and no ads.

Privacy at a glance
Photos and videos
Siftwren reads your photos and videos through Android's media permission, which you grant yourself (all photos or only the ones you select). They are checked on your device to find duplicates, similar and blurry photos. Nothing is uploaded, and the ad and statistics SDKs never receive your pictures, file names or anything found in them.
Sorting progress
Your swipe decisions, review bin, favorites, progress per month, picture fingerprints used to group similar photos, streak and statistics are kept in the app's private storage on your device.
Deleting and compressing
Photos are deleted only after you confirm in Android's own dialog. Compressed copies are saved to your gallery as new files.
Purchases
Handled by Google Play; we never see your payment details.

Permissions: Photos and videos (READ_MEDIA_IMAGES, READ_MEDIA_VIDEO, and on Android 14 and later the option to allow only selected photos; storage read on Android 12 and earlier), because sorting and deleting your gallery is what the app does. No "all files" access. Notifications, only for the optional daily reminder you turn on; it is set again after the device restarts (start at boot). No camera, microphone, location or contacts permission. Google's ad and purchase libraries add the advertising ID, network state and billing permissions. Internet is used for ads, purchases, crash reports, usage statistics and the settings file described above, never for your photos or videos.
