Freeroom
Last updated: 28 September 2026
In short: your photos never leave your iPhone. Freeroom analyzes your photos and videos on your device and never uploads them to us or anyone else. There is no account, no tracking and no advertising. If you subscribe, purchase details are processed by RevenueCat so the app knows your subscription is active.
Freeroom asks for access to your photo library so it can find similar photos, duplicates, screenshots, Live Photos and large videos. All of this analysis, including the image comparison, runs entirely on your device. Results are kept in the app’s private storage on your iPhone so later scans are faster. They are removed when you delete the app.
When you delete, convert or compress items, Freeroom asks iOS to make the change. Deletions always go through Apple’s confirmation dialog, and deleted items stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days.
If you use iCloud Photos, iOS may download an original from your own iCloud account to show, convert or compress it. That transfer is between your device and Apple; Freeroom does not see or store your iCloud credentials.
Subscriptions are sold and managed by Apple through the App Store. To check whether Freeroom Pro is active, the app uses RevenueCat, a subscription service. RevenueCat receives your App Store purchase receipts and a random identifier created by the app, not your name, email or Apple Account. We use this data only to provide your subscription and to see aggregate subscription numbers. It is not linked to your identity and not used for tracking or advertising. We never receive your payment details. Nothing about your photos is ever sent.
Apart from the purchase data above, Freeroom contains no analytics or advertising code. If you choose to share analytics with app developers in your iPhone settings, Apple may provide us with aggregated, anonymous statistics such as downloads and crashes, as described in Apple’s own privacy policy.
The optional weekly reminder is a local notification scheduled on your iPhone. The Home Screen widget reads storage figures that the app keeps on your device. Neither sends anything off the device.
Freeroom does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. Purchase data handled by RevenueCat, described above, is not linked to a person.
If this policy changes, the date above will change too. Questions: [email protected].
