Questions
Does swiping delete a screenshot?
No. Swiping left marks it and puts it in the bin. Nothing is deleted until you open the bin, tap Delete and confirm in the iOS dialog.
I deleted something by mistake. Can I get it back?
Yes, for 30 days. Open Photos, go to Albums › Recently Deleted, and recover it there.
Why does Sweep need access to my photos?
To find your screenshots and show them to you. Everything happens on your iPhone, and nothing is uploaded. If you’d rather, choose “Limit Access” and pick the screenshots Sweep can see. You can change this at any time in the Settings app, under Apps › Sweep › Photos.
Is there a subscription or anything to unlock?
No. You pay once, and that’s everything. There are no ads, no account and nothing to restore.
