Frequently asked questions
What does Live Photo Cleaner+ do?
It finds Live Photos on your iPhone. Keep them, convert selected ones to stills to reclaim storage, or delete them. It does not detect duplicate photos.
Is it free?
Download free with 1 GB of cleanup included. One purchase unlocks unlimited cleaning for life—no subscription. See the App Store or purchase screen for your local price.
Can I convert in bulk?
Yes. Filter and select multiple photos in Bulk Mode, or decide individually with Swipe Review: Today’s Quick 10, a date, or an album.
Will I lose the still photo?
Convert prepares a still replacement before moving the Live original to Recently Deleted. Delete keeps no replacement. Check your choices and new stills before permanently deleting originals.
When is storage freed?
Originals use storage until they leave Recently Deleted. Check your stills, then permanently remove only the originals you intend to delete, or let them expire. The app cannot empty this album. Storage totals may take time to update.
Does it work with iCloud Photos?
Yes. Cloud-only originals may need to download first. Library changes sync across devices on the same account. With Optimize iPhone Storage, local savings may differ from estimates because the video was not fully stored on your phone.
Are my photos uploaded?
The app processes photos on your device without uploading them to a developer-operated server. Apple’s iCloud downloads and syncing still work. No account is needed. The app uses no third-party tracking SDKs.
Are format and metadata preserved?
Where possible, the app preserves format, including HEIF, plus supported dates, locations, favorites, and editable album membership. Each still is a new asset; some embedded metadata, editing history, or Live Photo effects may differ. Check important photos before removing originals.
Can I undo a conversion?
Recover the Live original from Recently Deleted while available—normally up to 30 days. Both the original and still may remain afterward. The app cannot restore motion or sound after permanent deletion.
Which devices are supported?
iPhone with iOS 17 or later.
How do I restore my purchase?
In the app’s Settings, choose Restore Purchase while signed into the Apple account used to buy the lifetime unlock. See purchase help if needed.
