Question 1

Does PhotoFresh access my photos?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with your permission — but it never uploads them. All scanning and analysis happens entirely on your device. We have no servers, no cloud, no way to see your photos even if we wanted to.

Question 2

Is my data sent anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. PhotoFresh does not have internet access. Zero data leaves your device. The only network activity is Google Play Billing if you purchase premium — and that's handled by Google, not us.

Question 3

How do I restore deleted photos?

Accepted Answer

PhotoFresh moves deleted items to Android's system trash, where they're recoverable for 30 days. Open your device's Gallery or Files app and look for the Trash or Recently Deleted section.

Question 4

Is PhotoFresh free?

Accepted Answer

Free users get Quick Scan with unlimited deletes — duplicates, screenshots, old media, and WhatsApp base cleanup. PhotoFresh Premium (₹49/mo or ₹299/yr) unlocks Deep Scan, advanced WhatsApp tools, auto-cleanup, and more. Yearly plans include a 3-day free trial.

Question 5

Why does PhotoFresh need the notification permission?

Accepted Answer

Only for optional cleanup reminders. You can deny this permission and the app works perfectly fine without it.

Question 6

What about WhatsApp photos?

Accepted Answer

PhotoFresh can scan your WhatsApp media folder to find forwarded memes, duplicates, and old images. This requires you to manually grant access via Android's folder picker — we never access it without your explicit action.
