Sift: Photo & Contact Sorter

A private, on-device sorter for one phone living two lives. Separate work from personal, rescue your keepers, clear the noise — every change reversible. No ads, no track.

Sift is a private, on-device sorting intelligence for your iPhone. It untangles a camera roll and contacts shared between work and personal life — automatically separating what matters from the noise, rescuing the keepers, and letting you clear the rest safely, with zero fear, ads, or subscriptions.

Most "cleaner" apps are the problem. Weekly subscription traps. Fake virus alerts. AI that merges the wrong contacts or deletes wanted photos with no undo. Sift is the opposite of all of it.

KEEP WHAT MATTERS • Sort your library into Work, Personal, and Clutter — entirely on your device • Rescue important photos into protected albums before they're buried • Find duplicates, bursts, blurry shots, and screenshots in seconds • Side-by-side compare picks the sharpest keeper for you

CALM AT ANY SIZE Thousands of photos? Sift never overwhelms. Easy, high-confidence batches come first, big piles split into bite-sized parts, and you sort at your own pace. Nothing expires, nothing is rushed.

NOTHING LOST, EVER Every "delete" is a soft delete. A 30-day Recovery Bin holds anything you clear, with full restore. There is no silent auto-deletion — Sift asks when it isn't sure.

SAFE CONTACT MERGES The genre's #1 horror story, fixed. Every duplicate merge previews the exact result first — every number and email preserved — and is fully reversible. Sift never merges automatically.

AUTO-PILOT (Sift Pro) Describe a rule in plain English — "keep every photo with my kids in Family" — and Sift routes and rescues new photos in the background. Confident, reversible actions only.

100% ON-DEVICE PRIVACY Sift ships with no internet permission at all. No accounts, no servers, no ads, no tracking SDKs. Your photos, contacts, and every decision stay on your phone. The App Privacy label reads "Data Not Collected" — because none is.

FAIR MONEY A generous free tier (scan, triage, full Recovery Bin) plus one optional one-time unlock for Auto-pilot and natural-language rules. No subscriptions. No ads. Ever.

Requires iOS 26. Smart features (Apple Intelligence context, natural-language rules) need an Apple Intelligence–capable iPhone; core triage works on all supported devices.
