Organizing your iPhone’s photo library shouldn’t take ages! Follow these 5 simple steps to get rid of the clutter in the smartest way possible.
We love capturing our special moments so that we can remember later on. It is always fun and memorable, but before we know it, our gallery gets quite messy and trying to organize all that clutter can be quite overwhelming at times.
For this challenging task, you may want to think about using a gallery cleaner because these cleaner apps can be a real time-saver. There are a lot of free cleaner apps on the App Store but using some of them can be tricky or even useless. To save you a lot of trial-and-error time, you can follow these 5 easy steps to organize your gallery (including the photos on your iCloud & videos) with the Cleanup app which will save you time and keep your photos safe!
1- Download the Cleanup app to your iPhone
Cleanup is the best photo cleaner app on the market which helps you organize your gallery by grouping duplicates, similar photos, screenshots and videos into categories. And it also has a fun swiping feature. You can download Cleanup directly from the App Store, but to save time here’s a link you can use to download the app to your iPhone.
2- Launch The Cleanup Photo Gallery Cleaner App and Give Permission
After you download the app, open it on your phone and give permission to access your photo gallery. You have nothing to worry about since Cleanup does not require an internet gallery to work, meaning it works locally on your phone and does not transfer your photos to anywhere. It only needs the permission to scan your photos so it can help you clean them, that’s all.
3- Wait For The Photo Gallery Scan
Wait for the app to scan your gallery so you can start organizing your photo gallery. This image cleaner will automatically group your photos into different categories to make the process easier.
Cleanup uses unique face detection and comparison techniques to categorize your photos and suggest you the “Best Shot” in a set of similar photos.
4- Start organizing your photo gallery by reviewing the categories
Cleanup is a similar photo cleaner that will group the similar photos in your library into sets and suggests the best one among them using its algorithm. This especially comes in handy if you like to take multiple shots and choose the best one later. Don’t forget to review the app’s suggestion to make sure you agree with the choice. For the rest of the photos you can swipe left or right to keep or delete them.
Cleanup is also a duplicate photo cleaner and its other handy features are the duplicate and screenshot categories; this makes it easier so that you can clean the duplicates at once and review all those screenshots much faster.
5- Learn about its safety standards & the “Keep List” feature
We hear you saying “is this photo cleaner safe?” and Cleanup passes the privacy test with flying colors since it works locally (not relying on a server to scan the photos) and doesn’t even require an internet connection so you’re good to go.
Lastly, about the safety of your photos, it has a neat little feature called “Keep List” which lets you keep photos you don’t want to delete in a separate list. All you need to do is to move the chosen ones to the “Keep List”. Even if you make a mistake and delete the wrong photo, no worries there either since all deleted photos will be kept in the “Recently Deleted” album of your iPhone’s photo library for 30 days so you can recover them anytime you want.
When you’re done reviewing and cleaning everything using the Cleanup app, just go back to your photo library and enjoy the new, organized and clean library of yours :)
