Review and organization happen locally on your iPhone.
Review 25 photos at a time. Keep what matters, let go of the rest, and confirm before anything is deleted.



Review and organization happen locally on your iPhone.
Twenty-five photos at a time keeps cleanup from becoming another chore.
“Let Go” creates a review list. It never silently deletes a photo.
Breakfast, a damp walk, friends by the water—the photos worth keeping rarely look like stock photography. GentleSort is made for the real, slightly messy camera roll you already have.



Finish one small round, then stop with a clearer camera roll and no cleanup guilt.
Grant full or limited Photos access. GentleSort only reviews what you allow.
Keep a photo or let it go. Every round is intentionally small and finishable.
