Cleaner One - Clean Storage Reviews

by GreyofPTA

Just installed the cleaner and ran it. It freed 1.9 gigs. Ok, so I ran it a second time and it freed 350 megs. Where did the extra 350 come from? Wouldn’t that have been freed up in the first go around?
I ran it 4 times in a row and each time it found a new random amount of space to free.
Really feels like it’s a fake app that just spams you with ads for other apps to pay for. I’m not getting a ‘it is really doing something’ feeling with this.
UPDATE: Just installed the current update to CleanerOne and half CleanerOne was removed. It only digs through your photos now. No more space or memory saving. Bait and switch garbage! Deleted.

When scanning my photo library with my iPad, CleanerOne crashes before completing the scan. I’ve tried multiple times. I still have not received a list of duplicates or a completed message. Also it will not scan in the background. So if the devise auto locks it hurts the scanning until you unlock the devise, which is very inconvenient and time consuming when you are waiting for it to complete the scan so you can go on with your life/work. Also because it must be unlocked, CleanerOne consumes much more power then necessary powering the display.

I'm running on an iPhone X with latest iOS. I installed drcleaner, ran the storage clean, upgraded to the$3.99 version, and as soon as I got the photo clean button, CleanerOne crashes. It keeps crashing when I try to restart CleanerOne , even if I look CleanerOne before doing so. If I delete CleanerOne , reinstall it, then it will load, have me go through the storage clean, and when I select photo clean, or crashes again and the process repeats. I have a large photo library... In any event, at the moment CleanerOne is useless to me and I'm out $3.99.

This is too bad, since I quite like drcleaner on Mac OS. The iOS version is buggy. Refund requested.

This might be a good product but I’m unsure. I ran it and it said it opened up 586MB of space, though it didn’t say what it deleted to create this extra space. I know it wasn’t photos, as I had that shard function turned off. I couldn’t find anything else that said what it was that was erased.

Before I would use CleanerOne on a regular basis I would need to see what all was erased after that first scan, and what was in each erased block for subsequent scans. It may have deleted things I would need to keep, such as old messages, contact information or just game data for games that I play, especially as I run two Game Center accounts on the same tablet, it could have easily erased one of those accounts without giving me any sort of warning.

Right now, I don’t think I could recommend CleanerOne.

What happened to my Magic photos? I picked 2 photos that I was going to delete and opened up the "Magic Vault." I used the "Mask" option and saved those photos in the "General Vault." I now can't undo the "Mask." I won't use your photo storage because I won't be able to get them back. Also why does it delete the photos in all devices when I use your storage? I want it to delete off my phone but not from my IPhone Cloud and Verizon Cloud.
CleanerOne works well for freeing up space but don't trust on using the photo vaults.

I want to love CleanerOne. But they don’t have a help instructions area.
I set up my Settings. Then tried to do the ‘find duplicate photos’ option. Then went to look at something else on my phone, came back, and CleanerOne had canceled the function. It does this with anything you attempt to do in CleanerOne . Why does CleanerOne continue to cancel every function, including updating the settings, every single time I briefly leave CleanerOne ? (And I’m not closing it, just glancing at another app).

Additionally, my email provider gives me this message every time the company, for CleanerOne, sends me an email:
“This email has failed its domain's authentication requirements.
It may be spoofed or improperly forwarded!”

So, is CleanerOne actually safe to use with such personal data? This is in addition to the operating glitches I found.

I like CleanerOne, I love how you can view the photo sets up close when choosing which ones to delete. I wish there was an option for finding EXACT duplicates, not just similar duplicates. Also, I’m interested in what the difference is between the General Vault and the Magic Vault, and the benefits are of each Vault, but there is no support/FAQ in CleanerOne . There isn't any information about this anywhere on the developer’s site, either.

So I got CleanerOne about a few months back and it worked great! But the past two weeks or so when I press it to clear storage, it goes to a hundred then it says “it’s almost done” and then I wait, and it says error. This has happened every time I have used it for the past two weeks or so. Developers people listen to me and help me by fixed my your app or giving a response!
Sincerely,

I was in desperate need of help with duplicates and triplicates of photos in my photo library. CleanerOne helped me a lot in a short amount of time. It found SIMILAR pictures as well as duplicates for me to get rid of. I would love it if similar pictures weren’t included because it delayed the process of just getting rid of the exact duplicates. Otherwise, this is a great app. Maybe I am being picky.

I thought I did a pretty good job of keeping unwanted files off my iPhone. And it cleaned up 1.9 GB of unnecessary files. For a free tool, this is great. Thanks Trend Micro. I'm giving it 4 stars, because it never tells you what it cleaned up. Also, you might want to read the User Agreement, because the tradeoff for this Fred tool is that they collect vulnerability data about your WiFi network. If that bothers you don't download the tool.

I like love the photos cleaner. I have complete control over what I delete. It also has a screen shot cleaner tool. I didn't even realize I had so
Many I forgot to delete. My phone is running a lot faster! It doesn't catch all the cache but it does a lot! Handy tool! It would be a little better if it added an unused app option or something to help clean up unused apps. I have apps stuffed everywhere and I know I don't use them all. I just haven't had the time to go through all my folders to delete the ones I no longer need.

I had some failed airdrops transferring pics from phone to iPad & wound up backing them up anyways so I had a ton of duplicate pics. I was so frustrated & thought it’ll take forever to sort these. The thought came to me to search for picture clean up & I’m so glad I found CleanerOne!! Found thousands of duplicates & sorted so I could delete them. Thank you so much!!

I'm using an iPhone 5c cuz my 6 got water damage, my 5c has 8gb. Laughable I know. Here's the problem. I have little to no apps but I stream podcast and music like crazy. Never download it. But for some reason I have zero storage left. I did some research and apparently this is a problem that doesn't have an answer. I mean if I'm streaming why is all my storage being used up. That's where CleanerOne come into play. Gave me back all my storage. Now I can actually take pictures.

This little app is nothing short of remarkable! With just a couple of taps, the junk saved by apps like Twitter and Facebook are gone, and you've freed up space on your iOS device, without damaging an app, changing a setting or reloading an app to gain storage.
New features such as break in alert and Touch ID make the small price of an upgrade absolutely worth while. I wouldn’t want to be without it, and after you’ve tried it, you’ll agree.

I first used the free version on my MacBook Pro and watched it work its magic. It works behind the scenes keeping my computer running smoothly and freeing up space on my hard drive. It worked so well, I bought the Pro version and I love it. My brother bought it and raves about it too. Got the iPhone and iPad version, bam, just cleaned up 2.3GB of junk off of my iPhone. It’s a big app, so you’ll need at least 2GB of free disk space—that’s the only drawback! Try it you’ll love it!

i only wish i ran CleanerOne on the the photos i previously offloaded to my PC and deleted from my devices.

here is some general advice to everyone complaining about crashing, freezing, for any app you use- did you update your iOS recently? whenever apple or any company updates their software for the device you’re using, there is a period of time that 3rd party devs might need to make their software completely compatible again. this is *normal.* instead of getting sassy or demanding your money back because software has adjustment periods, contact CleanerOne developer. report a bug. learn basic troubleshooting.

my phone was a little temperamental when i downloaded CleanerOne a few weeks ago but my ipad wasn’t. difference? i had just updated my phone but not my ipad. they both work great now.

so tl;dr, just chill out.

CleanerOne is a life saver. I recently transferred all my movies and images from my Galaxy to my IPad. Of course I somehow uploaded the same pix multiple times. Rather than sit here in one spot alllllllllll day long, sorting through over 23,000 movies and images to figure out which ones were duplicates, I downloaded CleanerOne and it found all the duplicates for me. An all day project turned into about a 15 minute project, and 12 of those minutes were me deciding which duplicates I would keep after CleanerOne pointed them out to me. CleanerOne is a keeper.

I rarely review apps and am generally hard to impress. Most apps leave out something or are a little buggy.. Not cleaner one. This one deserves a five star review. It does exactly what it says it does and does quickly, efficiently, and thoroughly. The interface is clean and explicit. The system info provided in real time is icing on the cake. CleanerOne lets you see the current status of your device. I can highly recommend CleanerOne to anyone with an iOS device cluttered and/or filling up.

I am always a huge fan of junk cleaning apps. Especially on Apple devices. I love that CleanerOne can clean junk files off my phone so easily, I just got CleanerOne and it cleaned 1.8GB of junk off my phone! I have been looking for a good junk cleaning app for awhile and have finally found one! I got CleanerOne on my MacBook too! Highly recommend CleanerOne for iPhones and MacBooks!

Very Good tool for removal of duplicate contacts, videos and photo.
Just need to know whether this Application upload any data from the device to the application data base server.
I noticed that when scanning the videos in the gallery it shows a false result, most of the videos which are duplicated are scanned but it scanned other videos also and marked them as duplicate which are not actually, so i have to manually uncheck them.

I have an iPhone 5c with only 5 gigs of storage on it... and from the start it's been an uphill battle of constantly using it all up. For a good year I've been looking for apps that clear up storage without having to delete apps, ALL OF MY PHOTOS, or information I need on my phone. CleanerOne did all of that under the span of five minutes. It's incredibly easy to use, fast, and obviously reliable. Five minutes ago I had all 5 gigs used up and now I only have 3.2 used up (and it's still cleaning out more!)

I can’t tell you how many times CleanerOne saved me from having no storage. I have a 16 GB iPhone 6s and since iOS 9 I’ve been struggling with managing my storage. Before I used a method inside of the iTunes Store where you try to download a bigger file than the freed up storage I had on my phone. That method forces your phone to clear up the cache... but there was so many downsides, such as purchasing that item when I didn’t want to. But with CleanerOne I think it does the same technique just without going into CleanerOne Store or iTunes .

Every since I downloaded CleanerOne I’ve cleared up about 4 to 5 GB in storage!
