Start with a free scan

Every free scan includes up to 3 folders and 3,000 files, totaling no more than 33 GB. All three limits apply. Choose a smaller scope to continue for free. Pro supports scans above these limits; current purchase options and prices are shown in the app.

Know what will change

Photos Library scans are read-only. Cleanup actions apply to supported files in selected folders. Restoring a move requires its report and the moved files to remain available. Moving files within the same disk does not itself free disk space. Permanent deletion cannot be undone through the app.

Your files stay on your Mac

The app does not upload your files, paths or scan reports, and does not collect analytics. Photos Library access requires your system permission.
