Private iPhone and iPad photo cleanup app
Gallery Checkup is a private iPhone and iPad photo cleanup app that scans your Photos library into focused review bundles, then lets you decide carefully. Favorites are protected and deletion only happens after your confirmation.
Safety
The app now centers safety controls before you start removing anything: practice mode, simple review, reminders, and a recovery path through Photos.

Review one photo at a time with clear Keep, Mark to Remove, and Export actions.
Set weekly or monthly nudges so cleanup stays small instead of becoming a weekend project.
Follow a step-by-step guide to recover recently deleted items in the iOS Photos app, available anytime.
How it works
Gallery Checkup groups likely clutter into bundles so you are judging context, not hunting through the whole library.
Screenshots, similar photos, long videos, blurry or dark images, RAW/JPEG pairs, social saves, Live Photos, bursts, old low-context items, Today in History, and Nostalgic Month.
Search prepared bundles with prompts like old screenshots, biggest videos, or weak quality photos. Apple Intelligence may refine summaries when available.
You approve every deletion, and Photos keeps removed items in Recently Deleted for a limited time. A built-in recovery walkthrough shows you exactly how to undo deletions.
