PicSweep - Photo Cleaner
Clean your Google & iCloud Photos library safely & locally.
PicSweep is a privacy-first extension for Chrome, Brave, Edge, and Opera that cleans Google Photos & iCloud Photos with desktop power mobile apps can't match. Your photos never leave your browser—only anonymized pHash values are evaluated via Hamming distance for ultra-fast similarity matching. Fine-tune your cleanups with adjustable thresholds, album, date, and keyword filters, plus safe bulk deletion to reclaim your cloud storage fast!
I built PicSweep because managing bloated photo libraries across Google Photos and iCloud Photos on mobile screens is frustrating, slow, and lacks granular control.
Before launching on Product Hunt, I tested PicSweep quietly. Entirely organically and within just 2 months, it grew to 400+ active users and 100+ paying customers (a 25%+ organic conversion rate) with a 4.5★ rating on the Chrome Web Store! This early validation proved how big of a pain point cloud storage bloat really is—and how much people value a private, desktop-class solution.
🔒 Zero-Media-Upload Architecture: Privacy and speed are at the core of PicSweep. Your actual photos and videos NEVER leave your browser. PicSweep processes your media locally to compute 1-way, irreversible perceptual hashes (pHash). Only these anonymized hash strings are evaluated using a high-performance Hamming distance algorithm for similarity detection. The original pixels never touch any external server.
Why PicSweep gives you total control:
Free to Try & Preview: Scan your library completely free to see how many duplicates and similar photos are eating up your space before upgrading.
Desktop Power & Speed: Perform deep, bulk cleanups that are tedious or impossible to manage on mobile screens.
Dual Platform Support: Seamlessly cleans both Google Photos and iCloud Photos.
Privacy-Preserving AI: Ultra-fast duplicate & similarity matching without uploading your actual photos anywhere.
Adjustable Similarity Ratio: Fine-tune how strict or flexible the algorithm should be when finding similar shots or burst photos.
Granular Filtering: Target specific Albums, Date Ranges, Search Keywords, or separate Photos vs. Videos.
🎁 SPECIAL OFFER FOR PRODUCT HUNT COMMUNITY: PicSweep is free to install and scan. Once you try it and see how much storage you can reclaim, you can unlock full bulk cleaning with our PH launch discount!
I’m offering the PH community 50% OFF for the next 7 days!
