PhotoCleaner for Android

Find old photos. Review what matters. Free up space.

PhotoCleaner is a simple Android app that helps you organise and remove old photos from your phone.

Instead of scrolling through thousands of pictures, PhotoCleaner groups your photos by year, month, and day, making it easy to find and delete photos you no longer need.

No accounts, no cloud uploads, and no unnecessary complications.

Features

You can also open an individual day, review its photos, and deselect any pictures you want to keep.

PhotoCleaner keeps track of your selection and calculates its total size.

Review Before Deleting
