How to clean up your camera roll fast
The system: month by month, newest first
Sift groups your library into month decks with a progress bar on each. Recent months are the easiest (you remember the context), so start there and work backwards. Finish a month and it's marked done — dopamine included, confetti and all.
One decision per photo
In the deck, every photo gets a single verdict: left = toss, right = keep. No albums to file into, no star ratings, no 'deal with later' pile — later never comes. Videos and Live Photos play on tap so you can check before deciding. Undo is one tap away.
Make it a habit, not a project
After the backlog: new photos only accumulate in one month — the current one. Sixty free swipes a day is enough to keep pace with almost any shooting habit. A library that took years to clutter stays clean in minutes per month.
What about the photos you keep?
Everything you swipe right stays exactly where it was — Sift never moves, compresses or re-organises your keepers. It's a cleaner, not a librarian: the goal is a camera roll where everything left is something you're glad to see.
