Cleana: Phone Storage Cleaner

You don’t even need to onboard in this app, it’s so easy to use. There’s an option for hidden pictures protected by password or Face ID, and easy options to see exactly how much space your photos and videos are taking so that you can take action on them. Highly recommended.

This is honestly the only cleaner tool I’ve needed. It did an excellent job helping me clean up a large photo library quickly and efficiently. The duplicate detection works well and saved me a lot of time. I also really like the contact management feature—it was unexpected, but it helped me find duplicate contacts I didn’t even realize I had. That said, I wasn’t able to merge a few of them, and it’s not clear why, so that could use some improvement or better feedback in the app. One improvement I’d like to see is a refresh or update button, since it doesn’t always seem to re-scan automatically. It would also be great to have a dedicated section for receipts or document photos. I take a lot of pictures of receipts, and being able to detect duplicates (like duplicate checks) or organize them separately would be very useful. A feature to group similar photos into albums would also add a lot of value. Overall, very solid app that does exactly what it promises, with some great potential for even more.

This app does a great job of spotting duplicate photos and gives you the option to delete them, as well as an option to compress videos which I thought was cool. One tweak I think could be made here is to delete the video altogether when you’re viewing vids in the compression screen. The app also allows you to clean up your contacts! Another cool feature. But I wasn’t able to exit out of this feature like I could with the photos and videos, at least not where I could see. There’s no X or back button, you’re just stuck on that screen. So that’s my other suggestion, is to provide a back button in the contacts feature. All in all, a great app that does a great job of cleaning up your phone to give you extra storage!
