I don't normally write reviews, and this will likely be the only one I make. But genuinely, do not use this app. It's managed to delete 9 GB of data in a folder I specifically didn't touch nor did it even come up in the "cleanup review" options. I lost 9000+ photos, videos, music files, and other files in the span of 3 seconds- and THEN there's no ability to actually try and restore any of it. Actually malicious, garbage app. It's good for cleaning out your RAM I *guess* but it's not worth it.

The app is not able to delete anything by itself. When you tap the Quick clean button, the review screen lists all of the item types that can be cleaned. There are two categories: "Unneeded files" (truly dispensable data) and "Files to review" (data that may or may not be valuable to you). We recommend reviewing these items. More on our FAQ site.

Been using the app for 5 years and was initially impressed by how functional and time saving it was. Most apps these days take up a lot of space, so it was helpful to have an app that could solve that problem. However, the app is kinda mid now. Can't even clean unwanted and hidden files etc, without sending me back to the quick clean section everytime I choose finish cleaning. An absolute waste and scummy tactic to force you to spend money when they previously allowed you to use "free" premium.

What's the point of having a free premium trial and I still have to upgrade to another subscription just to use the same software on my phone⁉️ This company and products is a constant loop of upsell. It's a annoying to have to have multiple subscriptions just to get what's needed done. Uninstalling and cancelling this BS service before the end of this dumb trial. 👎

Hi, our app is free, but there is an option to upgrade to a Premium version, which is ad-free and also provides some extra features. If you are not interested in them, please ignore the suggestion to upgrade and use the free version - the protection against viruses it provides is as strong as in the paid version. Renata*Avast
