Comparison
ZeroRoll vs SwipeWipe
SwipeWipe is a popular, well-rated swipe-to-delete photo cleaner — it’s free to download and makes money with ads and in-app purchases. ZeroRoll plays the same swipe game with the opposite business model: 100% on-device, no ads, no account, reversible, and a one-time purchase if you want it.

The honest difference
Both apps let you swipe through your camera roll fast. The question is what happens around the swipe. With an ad-supported cleaner, your attention — and sometimes your data — is part of the deal. ZeroRoll’s deal is simpler: you pay a fair price (or use the free newest month), and in return nothing about you or your photos is uploaded, measured, or sold. Every delete is reversible for 30 days, so speed never costs you a memory.
If you want a private, ad-free photo cleaner with a one-time purchase option, that’s exactly what ZeroRoll is built to be. See all of our promises →
