PicLoom: Photo Sort & Journal

Clean up your photo library with private, on-device AI, and keep the moments that matter. PicLoom recommends what to let go and why, sorts photos by what's in them, and helps you revisit your days and keep a journal. Your photos are analyzed on your iPhone and never uploaded.

- On-device AI cleanup. Start with Recommended: extra similar shots, blurry photos, large videos and expired tickets, each with a reason, and among similar shots the best one is suggested to keep. Or review by what's inside: people, scenery, cats, dogs, food and documents. When AI isn't sure, PicLoom asks, and your answer stays on your iPhone.

- Review one photo or video at a time. Swipe to keep it or add it to your deletion queue. Check your choices before confirming deletion through the system Photos prompt.

- Sort by type. Give screenshots, videos, Live Photos and blurry shots their own pile, sorted by date or size, and compare duplicates side by side to keep the best one.

- Swipe up into an album. Keep a photo and file it in one move, and pin the albums you use most above the card. Not sure yet? Swipe up to the thought bubble and decide later.

- Immersive review. Spread two fingers or swipe a few in a row, and only the photo is left. Swipe down to come back.

- Revisit a day. Browse your calendar and the photos and videos taken on each date, including Live Photos.

- Keep a journal. Write about a day in your own words or start from a template, add that day's activity rings from Apple Health, then return to your saved entries by month.

- Journal pages. Each day you keep becomes a page: four templates, four papers, washi tape and postmarks. Trips, holidays and birthdays are laid out for you automatically. Flip through your month like a book, turn it into a short video with music, or seal a page for your future self.

- See where you've been. The Footprints map places your photos on a satellite globe, city by city. Swipe for this day in past years or a random wander, and tap a city to revisit it month by month. Each trip is recognized automatically, so you can sort it in one go or save it as an album with Pro.

- See the small steps add up. Follow your reviewing activity in Footprints, collect keepsakes, and bring moments from the app to your Home Screen with widgets.

- Choose from seven interface languages and set a separate language for new journal drafts.

PicLoom is free to download with a daily reviewing allowance. Pro is an optional one-time purchase for unlimited reviewing, unlimited journal videos, trip albums in one tap, the current Pro themes and app icons, and the Pro keepsake. Future optional features or cloud services may require separate purchases or subscriptions.

Writing by hand and using templates do not require a cloud API key. Optional cloud writing uses your own key, and provider charges may apply. Sending photo attachments requires separate permission. On-device writing assistance depends on device and language support.

Core reviewing records and journal entries are stored locally. Photo locations are matched to cities on your device, and map imagery comes from Apple Maps. Apple Health activity is read on your device and never written. Duplicate, blur and content checks run only on this device, and nothing is uploaded. Photos are added to an album only when you choose; nothing is moved out of your library or edited. Optional place lookups for selected photos and optional cloud writing contact external services. No separate PicLoom account is required.
