Preserve original resources
Back up original photo and video resources without re-encoding. Embedded metadata stays in the files; Photos metadata is recorded in a backup manifest.
Verify before deletion
The app checks backups before requesting deletion through Photos. Deletion can also affect iCloud Photos and other synced devices.
Keep a history
Review scan and backup results, and resume supported interrupted operations from History.

FAQ
Clear answers before the click.
What does rotate mean?
Rotation is a repeatable cycle: keep the photos you want close, move rule-selected originals to your storage, verify the backup, and confirm removal from Photos. Set the policy once and reuse it as your library grows.
Do I need to set up every sync?
No. Your rules and destinations are saved. One tap starts the next scan using those rules; you still confirm the batch and any Photos deletion request. Keep the app open while it works.
Does scanning delete photos?
No. Scanning selects candidates for review. You confirm the backup, and the app verifies it before requesting deletion through Photos.
What happens with iCloud Photos?
Deleting an item from Photos can also delete it from iCloud Photos and other synced devices. Deleted items stay in Recently Deleted for up to 30 days. The device space they occupy is released when they are permanently deleted there. To free that space sooner, open Photos → Recently Deleted and delete them permanently after checking your backup. You cannot recover them from Photos afterward. You can also check Settings → General → iPhone Storage → Photos. If Empty Recently Deleted is offered, use it to empty the album.
Where does my data go?
Your photos and videos are backed up to the SMB or WebDAV destination you choose. Library scanning and text recognition run on your device. See the privacy policy for details about data use and privacy choices.
What does Pro include?
A one-time Pro purchase removes ads. See the App Store and in-app purchase screen for pricing and availability.
