GoSwipe: Photo Storage Cleaner

The photo storage cleaner for the camera roll you’ve been avoiding.

GoSwipe is an iPhone photo cleaner. Swipe right to keep a photo or video. Swipe left to queue it for deletion. Photos never leave your device.

Keep what still feels like yours. Confirm from the Bin. iOS moves those items to Recently Deleted for 30 days.

Get on App Store

For iPhone (iOS). Start free.

How it works

You decide. iOS does the deleting.

A left swipe only queues. You confirm a batch from the Bin. Then the iOS system sheet moves those items to Recently Deleted.

  1. 01

    Swipe left to let go

    A gentle flick queues a photo or video. Nothing is gone yet.

  2. 02

    Swipe right to keep

    Keep the frames that still feel like yours.

  3. 03

    Confirm from the Bin

    Review the queue, then confirm. Deletes use the iOS system sheet — not a silent wipe.

  4. 04

    30 days to change your mind

    Confirmed deletes move to Recently Deleted on your iPhone for 30 days.

What it frees up

Free up gigabytes. Stop paying for extra iCloud storage.

Target the heaviest space hogs on your iPhone: long 4K videos, forgotten screenshots, and years of camera roll clutter that push you into paid iCloud tiers.

iCloud space

Free up iCloud without upgrading

When you delete photos in GoSwipe and empty Recently Deleted, your iCloud Photos quota frees up immediately. Reclaim your space without paying for higher iCloud+ tiers.

Videos

Clear heavy 4K videos fast

Videos take up to 90% of your camera roll's storage. Dedicated Videos mode lets you review clips with sound and queue heavy files for deletion in a single flick.

Screenshots

Wipe screenshot clutter

One-off receipts, delivery codes, memes, and accidental grabs accumulate fast. Open the Screenshots album mode and clear out months of temporary images in minutes.

On-device safety

Zero uploads & 30-day safety net

Your library is processed 100% on-device using Apple PhotoKit. Nothing is deleted silently — you review the Bin, confirm via iOS, and have 30 days to change your mind.

On iPhone

Duplicates and Tidy Shelf.

Two ways to clear exact copies and look-alike shots on your iPhone.

Tidy Shelf

Play Tidy Shelf

Tidy Shelf turns look-alike clean-up into a 90-second game. Drag photos onto shelves, match three of a kind, keep the best and let the rest go. Free accounts get a few levels a day, and GoSwipe Pro is unlimited.

  • Drag a photo to another shelf. Three look-alikes on one shelf clear it.
  • Clear shelves back to back for a combo and a few extra seconds.
  • When the level ends, review each set: the best photo stays, the rest can go to the Bin.
How Tidy Shelf works
Duplicates

Clear duplicates in one tap

Duplicates finds exact copies and near-identical shots, such as a burst of five. It pre-selects the extras and marks the best photo in each group as Suggested. Untick anything you want to keep, then move the rest to the Bin. Duplicates is free.

  • Groups exact copies and look-alike shots, found on your iPhone.
  • Keeps your liked and edited photos unless you tap them.
  • Free, with or without GoSwipe Pro.

On your iPhone

Photos never leave the device.

GoSwipe reads your library on-device so you can decide what to keep. Media files, asset identifiers, faces, and photo metadata are not uploaded.

Sign in with Apple is required. Google sign-in may also be offered. We store an account id, an email when the provider shares one, subscription status, and swipe counts — not your photos. Delete your account anytime in Settings. Data is hosted in the EU by MB Elzee group, Lithuania.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly.

Short answers for people, search, and assistants.

Does GoSwipe delete my photos permanently?

No. Swiping left only queues a photo in the Bin. Nothing leaves your library until you confirm from the Bin, iOS asks you to confirm, and items then wait in Recently Deleted for 30 days.

Do my photos get uploaded anywhere?

No. GoSwipe works on your photos strictly on your iPhone. Your photos, videos, file names, faces and location data never reach our servers or any cloud. The app syncs your account, subscription status and swipe counters. If you agree in the iOS tracking prompt, it also shares installs, sign-ups and subscriptions with Meta to measure our ads, never anything about your photos.

Does GoSwipe free up iCloud storage?

Yes. If you use iCloud Photos, items you delete through GoSwipe and clear from Recently Deleted are removed from your iCloud account too. That can help you avoid paying for a bigger iCloud+ plan.

Can I clean only my screenshots?

Yes. Albums mode includes smart albums such as Screenshots, so you can clear receipts, memes and temporary captures in minutes.

Does it work on videos?

Yes. Videos mode plays clips inline. Videos use most of the space on an iPhone, especially 4K recordings, so a quick review can free up gigabytes.

Does GoSwipe find duplicate photos?

Yes. Duplicates finds exact copies and look-alike shots on your iPhone, pre-selects the extras and lets you review them before anything moves to the Bin. Nothing is deleted until you delete from the Bin.

Is Tidy Shelf free?

Free accounts get a few levels a day. GoSwipe Pro unlocks unlimited levels. Duplicates is free with or without Pro.

What happens when my free swipes run out?

You can keep going with GoSwipe Pro for unlimited swipes. Subscriptions are billed by Apple through your Apple ID, weekly or yearly.

How do I cancel GoSwipe Pro?

GoSwipe Pro is billed directly by Apple. You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your Apple ID subscription settings. Restore Purchases is available on the paywall and in the app Settings.

How do I delete my GoSwipe account?

Open Settings in the app and select Delete account. This permanently removes your GoSwipe account, login credentials, and usage records from our servers. (It does not restore or alter items already moved to Recently Deleted on your iPhone).
