I don't normally write reviews, and this will likely be the only one I make. But genuinely, do not use this app. It's managed to delete 9 GB of data in a folder I specifically didn't touch nor did it even come up in the "cleanup review" options. I lost 9000+ photos, videos, music files, and other files in the span of 3 seconds- and THEN there's no ability to actually try and restore any of it. Actually malicious, garbage app. It's good for cleaning out your RAM I *guess* but it's not worth it.

The app is not able to delete anything by itself. When you tap the Quick clean button, the review screen lists all of the item types that can be cleaned. There are two categories: "Unneeded files" (truly dispensable data) and "Files to review" (data that may or may not be valuable to you). We recommend reviewing these items. More on our FAQ site.

Been using the app for 5 years and was initially impressed by how functional and time saving it was. Most apps these days take up a lot of space, so it was helpful to have an app that could solve that problem. However, the app is kinda mid now. Can't even clean unwanted and hidden files etc, without sending me back to the quick clean section everytime I choose finish cleaning. An absolute waste and scummy tactic to force you to spend money when they previously allowed you to use "free" premium.

Used to work fine even if the ads were annoying but when I tried it on my new phone it deleted files I didn't select, including all my photos, audio, downloads... yet it didn't delete the photos in the trash. I am very upset and have found no way to recover those important files. It even deleted my backup file. edit to say that I did double check and review the list before cleaning.
