Garbage Collector: Cleaner

Is your storage packed with forgotten screenshots, WhatsApp video notes, and videos you'll never watch again?
Garbage Collector is the smart cleaner that reclaims your gallery without compromising your privacy.

🔒 ABSOLUTE PRIVACY — 100% OFFLINE
Unlike commercial cleaners, Garbage Collector runs entirely on your device. No Google


Analytics, no Firebase, no ad SDKs, no cloud uploads. Your photos and videos never leave your hardware.

🎥 FIND WHAT YOUR GALLERY HIDES
WhatsApp buries circular video notes (PTV-*.mp4) and sent videos inside private folders using .nomedia directives, making them invisible to your gallery. Garbage Collector finds them through a direct file system scan and lets you delete them with full control.

🔍 REVIEW BEFORE YOU DELETE
Tap any file to inspect it in full screen before removing it:
• Images: interactive zoom and high-fidelity panning.
• Video Notes: circular playback faithful to WhatsApp's format.
• Videos: full player with a timeline scrubber.

⚙️ CUSTOM CLEANUP RULES
Tailor the app to your habits:
• Silent automatic mode or manual confirmation per deletion.
• Configurable minimum file age: 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 30 days, and more.
• Folder picker: monitor or exclude specific albums from your gallery.

💤 IGNORED LIST (SMART SNOOZE)
Dismissed a file? The app remembers it permanently. It won't show up in future scans unless you explicitly restore it from the Ignored tab.

🔔 EFFICIENT BACKGROUND SCANNING
Garbage Collector notifies you when digital junk builds up — without draining your battery or hogging RAM. Background tasks only run when battery is above 15% and are managed by Android WorkManager.
