SOUND FAMILIAR?
Where the space goes.
Ten photos of every smile.
Bursts and retakes add up, and nobody has an evening to sort through them one by one.
Too precious to just delete.
Clearing space shouldn’t mean risking the only copy of a first word or first step.
HOW SPACERECOVER HELPS
Made for how
you actually work.
Every finding says what it is, why it’s there, and what happens if it goes. You decide.
Keep the best shot. Lose the repeats.
Duplicates and near-identical bursts are grouped side by side with the sharpest, eyes-open shot suggested. Favourites are always protected.
- Repeats grouped together
- Favourites never selected
- You confirm every removal
Smaller copies for the phone.
Long videos are listed by size, with a preview of the smaller copy. Keep originals on your Mac and a lighter version on your iPhone.
- Preview before you replace
- Original kept until you approve
- Clear iCloud explanations
The family Mac as a safe home.
Pair your iPhone with your Mac on your home Wi-Fi and move selected originals across, verified, with no cloud relay in between.
- Local network only
- Transfers resume if interrupted
- Every copy verified

Read the guideGOOD QUESTIONS
Know before you make room.
Will this delete photos from iCloud too?
If you use iCloud Photos, deleting a photo on one device removes it everywhere it syncs. spacerecover explains this before anything is removed, and shows when an item will go to Recently Deleted.
Does it pick which photos to delete for me?
No. It groups similar photos and suggests a likely best shot using signals like blur and closed eyes. You decide what stays, and favourites are never selected.
Why didn’t my storage go up after deleting photos?
On iPhone, deleted photos stay in Recently Deleted for up to 30 days. spacerecover shows that space separately and reminds you of the final step.
