Frequently asked
Which devices are supported?
iPhone and iPad, running iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 or later. A desktop version is in development. There is no Android version.
How much does it cost? Is there a subscription?
Every feature is free to try. After a week and some real use, a single Lifetime Unlock is a one-time $10 purchase that keeps everything forever, including future updates. No subscription, no account, no ads.
How do I get it?
It's on the App Store.
Does it work with iCloud Photos?
Yes. It works with your existing photo library, including photos stored in iCloud. If a full-resolution original isn't on your device yet, iOS downloads it from your iCloud when needed.
Will it change or delete my photos without asking?
No. You're always in control. Deleting duplicate photos and applying tags are actions you confirm. Deleted photos go to Apple's Recently Deleted, where they stay recoverable for 30 days. The app works alongside Apple Photos and doesn't move your library somewhere else.
How does it find similar photos?
Open any photo and tap Similar. The app compares photos on your device using Apple's Vision framework and lines up the near-duplicates, sorted by closeness: burst leftovers, retakes, look-alike shots. You compare any two side by side with one slider and keep the better one. It never picks for you and never deletes on its own.
How does tagging work?
You tag photos yourself, with a flick. The app can suggest a tag when photos that look similar to the one on screen already carry it, and you accept or ignore the suggestion. By default each tag becomes a real album in Apple Photos, so your categories sync through iCloud across your devices and survive reinstalling the app. Add a "Tag:" prefix to keep them separate from your existing albums, or keep tags on-device only in tag-only mode. There is no text search box in the app.
Is my data private?
Completely. Everything runs on your device and nothing is uploaded. There are no accounts, no analytics and no network access at all. The App Privacy label says Data Not Collected because there is nothing to collect. See our privacy policy for details.
