Bytefall goes through your photo library and shows you what is taking up the space — with the real number, measured, after the scan. Nothing is claimed before it has been counted.
WHAT IT FINDS
• Exact duplicates — byte-for-byte identical copies of the same file
• Similar shots — the burst of eight where you only wanted one
• Screenshots — with a choice of how old: 7, 15, 30, 60 or 90 days, or all of them
• Photos saved by messaging apps — WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, Messenger, Signal and others
• Large videos — the handful of files that quietly hold most of your storage
• Out-of-focus photos — optional, and off until you turn it on
Every category shows how many items and how many megabytes before you decide anything.
THREE WAYS TO REVIEW
• Quick Sweep — one screen, the safe categories, one decision
• Sets — duplicates and similar shots arrive as a group, with one kept and the rest marked
• Swipe or grid — one photo at a time, or many at once with checkboxes
Everything you mark goes to a bin first. Nothing is deleted until you confirm, and the bin survives closing the app, so a review of eighty sets does not have to be finished in one sitting.
WHAT IT WILL NOT TOUCH
Favourites, anything from the last seven days, and any source you exclude are left alone. The suggested keeper in a set is a suggestion, not a verdict — you can move it.
HONEST NUMBERS
Storage Truth shows the free space you have now and the free space you will have afterwards, read from the device. Categories overlap — the same photo can be a duplicate and a large file at once — so the headline figure counts each photo once. An app that finds "9 GB" and frees 4 GB is doing arithmetic in its own favour.
Deleting removes files from this device. Copies already backed up to Google Photos or another service stay in that service. Bytefall says so before you confirm, not after.
WHY BYTEFALL ASKS FOR ACCESS TO YOUR WHOLE GALLERY
Finding a duplicate means comparing every photo against every other photo. A picker that returns a handful of hand-picked files cannot answer the question the app exists to answer — you would have to already know which photos are duplicates in order to select them. Access is used for that comparison and nothing else.
PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION
No account. No sign-in. No ads. No analytics, no tracking, no advertising ID. Your photos are read, compared and deleted entirely on your phone. They are never uploaded — there is no server behind this app to upload them to.
