Video Cleanup

Video Cleanup

Videos are the heaviest items in any library by a wide margin — a single clip can outweigh thousands of photos, and the ones you keep watching are rarely the ones taking up the most space. CleanPhoto surfaces every video, grouped by capture month, so you can decide what stays at a human scale.

Videos sorted by month

The scan walks your library and pulls every video, then groups them by the year and month of capture. A session has the same shape as the photo swipe view: open a month, open a video, decide what to do. Nothing is preselected, and nothing is removed without your explicit confirmation through the system photo library.

See size before you decide

Video tiles show their file size up front, so the cost of keeping a clip is obvious before you commit. A 4K minute-long video that you shot once and will never re-watch is visible at a glance as the multi-gigabyte line item that it is — and that visibility is usually enough to make the call.

Review one month at a time

Months act as natural boundaries. A family trip, a holiday dinner, a sports weekend — each one is its own section, with its own start and finish. Ten minutes on one month, three minutes on another, and the heavyweight items in your storage get reviewed on a schedule you control.

Local and permission-aware

The video scan reads only your library's metadata and never uploads a thumbnail or a frame. Deletion still goes through the system photo library, so iOS and Android apply their own protected deletion prompts just as when you remove a clip yourself.
