Phone Cleaner: Clean Storage+ Reviews

PhoneCleaner is extremely frustrating if you have a large photo library. When I go into the similar photos and start scanning, it is so slow that I’ve never gotten through scanning my whole library. You also can’t leave PhoneCleaner or allow your phone to fall asleep with out it stalling and having to start over.

Also, it’s near impossible to review photos and to clean while it’s scanning is in process because it automatically selects what it thinks you want to delete. Even if you choose deselect all, it will start auto selecting again as it scans. There is no option to pause the scan so you can review what you want removed. Some of the photos that it picks up as similar are way off so I want to review before delete.

I would have canceled the subscription, but I was charged for the full year.

It happened to be that a couple of years ago I happened to develop two of every email. I then told PhoneCleaner to get rid of the duplicate contact addresses, and what it did was to get rid of every single address.

Supposedly it was supposed to back everything up to the icloud but I could never find it. I called Apple support and got a very nice woman at the first level of support who, after 30 minutes said she was going to get me to a higher level of support but somehow we lost each other.

I then called support again and immediately said I needed a high level. The woman who answered looked up my account and immediately transferred me to high level who knew exactly what to do. Problem solved!

However, outside of this program destroying my contacts list on my phone, there were other TERRIBLE characteristics that PhoneCleaner had. THERE WAS NO TELEPHONE NUMBER WHICH YOU COULD CALL and YOU COULDNT EVEN FIGURE OUT WHO THE DEVELOPER WAS using three search engines. Recently I had decided that I wouldn’t buy software from any company without a support telephone number.

I sent an email TO SUPPORT ABOUT 6 or MORE HOURS AGO AND HAVEN’T heard a thing.

BTW, I’ve had Mac computers for fifteen years, and in times past even programmed mainframes, so I think I am reasonably computer literate.

PhoneCleaner is what I’ve been searching for. There are so many duplicated photos and videos on my phone because of the photos app, and because of that I barely have any room. Thanks to PhoneCleaner I have room for more storage again. Thank you for PhoneCleaner.

PhoneCleaner will remove all of your contacts from your phone, and every time you try to restore, it will delete from your phone again. There is no customer service number, you have to email them ONLY, they will not call you, they will not provide you a number to call, they will only email and request screen shots, they have no remedy.
I lost 5478 contacts!! My iPhone only restored 2458 I did a total reset after trying to only restore contacts 4x
The worst part is they are trapped in PhoneCleaner
And no one from this company can tell me how to get them back, I have since found other customers who have written bad reviews for the same problem!!

In my mobile suddenly all photos duplicated. Hence, I downloaded PhoneCleaner. It scanned 9k photos and it was asking to delete 6k photos. It was also deselecting duplicate photos and keeping only one photo , which was correct behavior but When I click on the delete button. It was showing 9k photos will be deleted. That means it was asking to delete all 9k photos instead of 6 k duplicate photos after clicking the button. There was other options once you click delete button to select or deselect photos. Either you delete or don’t delete. Because of poor testing end user face problems. I lost my all photos.

I wanted something that would scan my entire library and flag duplicate images for review. It did some but very few and it sorts them as photos, videos screenshots. I have many many many screenshots and it dies not look for duplicates within those images, on my case those are the same a photos. So I basically had to manually page through every screenshot and determine what to keep. I didn’t need this to accomplish that

the user experience is somewhat annoying because of the way how ads are embedded, i think there is a way to improve that and the developer seems to care about the experience. the pop up to purchase subscription is annoying as well. PhoneCleaner does what it supposed to do and an OK for a free version.

In just a few minutes I cleaned up half of over 7k photos. The process was intuitive and double checked with me on one specific photo just to be sure. I didn’t review all sections and pics because I would have kep them anyway. But I really needed to pare it down! Whew! DONE

This feature is important because we have no idea what sort of duplications are eating up storage in our (limited) net universes. Anything that puts us into some better control of that is a strong plus!

I used it, I liked it. It didn’t even take a minute to clean up the duplicate files from the device. It cleared over 1000 duplicate files in about one minute. It saved the original files.

Wonderful app it gets rid of things you have duplicate copies of pictures and videos and I just don’t have time to look at thank you so much

Bad, very bad app! Did great with duplicate pics and videos but my valuable contacts, over 2000, some duplicates due to Apple issues and position changes. The cleaner app stacked data on top of data, for example one company name with over 10 separate contacts would convert to one contact with 10 numbers and 10 emails and only one contact name. It’s an app that adds a ton of extra work and confusing for you, a literal joke especially for the outrageous price!!

Amazing! I didn’t have to go through and delete 950 photos that were duplicates or similar to the many pics I had taken. So easy!

Cleaning my photos was so easy and fast, plus I have the option to look at my deleted photos for 30 days.

I went from never reviewing or deleting and still with plenty of room to you yelling at me every day to clean, to delete, etc, You’re driving me crazy. Stop with the daily reminders over minuscule things. I’m beginning to not like you at all. Once a week is more than sufficient for reminding.

for now PhoneCleaner is fine and let'scan do Yandel then I will see if is good and pay the Marne ship

Although it’s tedious to select the photos to delete, once you click the delete button it’s done!! Over 650 photos in about 3 seconds! Awesome! DEEDLE676

PhoneCleaner is not as intuitive. I feel uncomfortable deleting photos that I may never recover because not all photos are exactly the same. So fear is I will lose photos that I didn’t want to delete.

PhoneCleaner cleaned ALL of duplicates in less than 5 minutes. While keeping all my original photos bright and shiny. 10 out of five stars 👍

Hey your app is pretty good but can I ask one thing? Can you stop asking me to get a free trial every 2 seconds and calm down on the ads please but aside from that PhoneCleaner is pretty good

Be careful you’ll get charged for a year if you don’t carefully read before trying it out. I tried it out and it didn’t do anything I couldn’t do myself. Was unsatisfied with it so I didn’t pay anymore mind to it until I got the bill for 39.99 for a year subscription I didn’t even want. I had delegated PhoneCleaner after trying it once and didn’t cancel the free week trial. Pretty much was told I should have canceled it now your money is ours. Not to mention it overdrew my bank account. Sure their doing fine though.
