Delete Screenshots in Bulk Without Losing Information | SnapSweep

Frequently asked questions

Can SnapSweep sort my screenshots so I can bulk-delete the junk?
Yes. It classifies screenshots into 11 categories on device — chat, shopping, maps, web articles, documents, memes, QR codes, tracking receipts, invoices, notes and verification codes — and suggests what is safe to delete based on age and category.
Does it delete anything without asking me?
No. Every deletion goes through a swipe, or one batch commit you trigger yourself.
What if I delete something I wanted?
There is a 30-day recycle bin, and deletes go through iOS's native trash.
Where is the analysis done?
On device. No login and no cloud.

The short answer

Drowning in thousands of screenshots you will never open again?

SnapSweep uses on-device AI to classify, group and clean your photo library — so you can free up gigabytes without losing what matters.

Eleven categories

The classification is what makes bulk deletion safe rather than reckless. Screenshots are sorted into: chat, shopping, maps, web articles, documents, memes, QR codes, tracking receipts, invoices, notes and verification codes.

That list is the argument for the app: a receipt from eight months ago and a QR code you scanned yesterday look identical by date but not by kind, and only the second is still useful.

Automatic suggestions for what is safe to delete are based on age and category.

Swipe to decide

Tinder-style review: left to delete, right to keep, up to favorite.

This is the part that matters for trust. SnapSweep does not delete anything without asking — the swipe is the decision, and the app is proposing.

The safety net

Undo anytime; commits go through iOS's native trash; a 30-day recycle bin sits behind all of it.

On device

The analysis runs on device, with no login and no cloud. Optional anonymous analytics only.
