Flic | Delete & Manage Photos for iOS

Flic makes it easier than ever to go through all of the photos on your phone and delete duplicates or other shots you don't want to save. This means more space for new pictures, apps, and other things you want to keep on your device.

Pros

Monthly and usage breakdowns: Using this app, you can go through your photos one month's worth at a time. You can also go back through each month as many times as you want to get rid of photos you were on the fence about on previous passes. And as you delete photos, you can see exactly how much space you're freeing up on your device.

Flicking: Sorting your photos in this app just involves flicking them one way or the other as they appear. Photos you flick to the right will stay on your phone, and those you flick to the left go into the trash. When you're ready, you can empty the trash, but you can also go through it again to make sure you didn't accidentally throw away something by accident.

Cons

One direction: As you wonk through the stack of photos for any given month, you have to decide what to keep and what to get rid of without comparing similar shots side by side or one after another. You can undo one action, but if you have a sequence of shots and you don't want to save all of them, it may take you several passes through the month to determine which to keep and which to get rid of.

Bottom Line

Flic is a helpful tool, especially if you take a lot of shots to make sure you get the one you want. These images pile up fast, and the flicking action this app lets you use is a much more convenient way of sorting and deleting photos than the tools the built-in camera app provides.
