Keep it.
Keep it.
Or bin it.
Your camera roll is 12,000 photos you will never scroll through again. KeepOrBin makes clearing it a two-second decision, locks the private ones in a vault only you can open, compresses the videos hiding your gigabytes, and never sends a single frame off your phone.

Most cleaners rent you your own storage.
The popular ones charge by the week, some as much as $11.99 every seven days, to delete files you already own after uploading them to somebody's server. KeepOrBin takes the opposite position.

Four ways it wins the space back.
01 · Sort
Swipe right to keep, left to bin
One photo at a time, full screen, no grid to squint at. Undo any swipe instantly. It is the only cleanup method people actually finish, because it never asks you to think about more than one photo.
02 · Review
See what you are deciding on
Every shot fills the screen, so the near-identical burst of eleven is obvious and the one good frame is easy to keep. You move fast because you can actually see.
03 · Compress
The gigabytes are hiding in your videos
KeepOrBin ranks your videos biggest-first, shows exactly what each one will save before you commit, then re-encodes it on your device. Up to 70% smaller, and you keep the memory.
04 · Proof
Watch the space come back
A running tally of everything you have reclaimed, so the work is visible. This is the part that makes people come back and finish the other 2,000 photos.
From full to free, in four steps.
1 · Grant access
Allow access to your photo library. It is read locally; nothing is uploaded.
2 · Swipe
Work through the roll one card at a time. Keep, bin, undo.
3 · Compress
Pick a quality for your biggest videos and let the device re-encode them.
4 · Confirm
Review the bin before anything is deleted, then empty it and take the space back.
Your photos never leave your phone.
Not to us, not to a cloud, not to a model. The sorting, the compression and the analysis all run on your device, which is also why it works on a plane.
- ✓No uploads. No servers. No copies of your library.
- ✓No account, no email, no sign-in.
- ✓No analytics on what you keep or bin.
- ✓Deletions go through the system bin, so mistakes are recoverable.
