Question: what’s the ‘best practice’ for transferring all photos off iphone/cloud to retain separately?
#Iphone #icloudphotos

That's a wrap for today! Weekend mode activated! 🎉

Exciting news from #AppStoreConnect: a fresh visual update for submission drafting. Can't wait to discover more changes! 🌟👀

One way to test @commitphotos is by cleaning my own #iCloud #PhotosLibrary. 💻📸

Over 3 GB recovered! 💪

Admittedly, 2014 wasn't the most abundant year for photos, but I'm just beginning to test version 1.3 on the next year. 📅

It's getting fun! 🎉

Okay... my excitement is enormous! 🤩

From a simple #POC to a full-fledged #iCloudPhotos cleaner tool in just 3️⃣ months of intense #buildinpublic development.

#CommitPhotos reached its peak after #WWDC25 and shows no signs of slowing down. 📸🚀

Now it's #release time! 🎉

I began at the start of April and concluded in the final days of June. 🌼

Reflecting on my journey from the beginning to now, I can see how far I've come. 🚶‍♂️

From a small idea to a big project! 💡🚀

#buildinpublic #iCloudPhotos #PhotosLibrary #CommitPhotos #indiedev #macOS

While @revenuecat.com provides solutions to boost your #revenue, I'm adding a #Kickstarter-style purchasing goal. 🚀

After hitting that milestone, prepare for our next big features! 🎉

Support fuels progress; I aim to give back with top features! 💪

#CommitPhotos #iCloudPhotos #PhotosLibrary

I successfully completed the final piece of the puzzle with the soothing sounds of cat murmurs! 🧩🐱

Thanks to @RevenueCat, I’ve added more than just a Paywall View - the ability to support my work is now ready. 💰💻

#buildinpublic is over. It's done. 🎉

It is worth realizing that you are the one who creates your own reality. Take a break and start looking for it. ✨

Organizing your #PhotosLibrary is crucial for keeping #memories in order. These memories are what define us. 📷

#iCloudPhotos should recover space, here's how. 📱

Find What Matters has become my #buildinpublic goal. 🎯

Last week, I reached something Ive always dreamed of. Unfortunately, I only got a brief moment to experience it. 😔

I want to escape the paralysis of nearly reaching my goals! 💪 🚀

#macOS #iCloudPhotos #IndieDev #Photos

It's taking shape! I'm so excited! 🎉

The screenshots for my #buildinpublic project are ready. Now, I need to dive into App Store Connect to prepare everything needed for the release. 🚀

#PhotosLibrary will be much cleaner! 🧹 🖼️

#macOS #iCloudPhotos #PhotoCleaner #IndieDev

#CommitPhotos is ready! User will get first tools bundle to manage the #iCloudPhotos. 📸

Quickly identify activity over time with a heatmap view. Use powerful filters to focus and easily select unwanted assets. 🔍

Keep what you love, clean what you don’t. 💖🧹

#buildinpublic

I want to make a clear statement about #CommitPhotos. 📸

You will have an opportunity to clean your #iCloudPhotos Library soon, after #WWDC25. 🎊

Every photo tells a story. Every story is a commit. With this in mind, let's care about our #PhotosLibrary! 💖

I honestly don't know why I'm here. The app seems to have enough fun without me. 😅

Three out of the seven must-have tasks before release are done. I am so close to the release date! Tomorrow, I'll share more. 😉

Stay tuned! 🎉

#buildinpublic #icloudphotos #macOS #CommitPhotos

The GitHub Contributor graph wasn't just about visuals. 💡

I need an app to track where I left off cleaning my #iCloudPhotos library. Ever started deleting photos and forgotten your spot? 📷🧹

This is why we *Commit Photos*, and this #buildinpublic app is ready for testing! 🚀

I was making great progress on the refactor but hit a snag. I'm now adding the final touches before my #buildinpublic project goes live. 🚧🔨

To ventilate the brain a little, I took up the landing page and now I have an even bigger problem with how to do it... 😅

#iCloudPhotos

🚀 Commit Photos is almost here!

If you use iCloud Photos and want a smarter, cleaner way to manage your library (think: GitHub graph meets photo cleanup) — I'm opening up TestFlight beta access!

📩 DM me to join!

Once again, a refactor of my #buildinpublic project was needed to capture weekly data as metadata. 🔄

Deeper dive into #iCloudPhotos has provided an overview of the library or a selected year. Now, you can quickly identify the best week to start cleaning your #PhotoLibrary.

🧹

The Review is ready and will be a crucial part of my #buildinpublic project. 🌟

The flow is simple: You have a graph of your #PhotosLibrary. Choose the most intense week, select photos that can be discarded. 🗑️

Commit your choice, and the app deletes them from #iCloudPhotos. 📸

After yesterday's discovery, I added an inspector to show asset atoms. 🕵️‍♂️

#iCloudPhotos is amazing, but its structure is inefficient. 166k assets and 2.36 TB equal 14 MB per file. 📸

My #buildinpublic project is almost ready. Today, I will work on the removal feature. 🔨

Not surprised, but hadn't thought of it before. 😲

The #iCloudPhotos with #SharedLibrary is an amazing tool for family memories. Another great #Apple invention is #LivePhoto but...

🖼️ 2MB vs 12MB 🌄

Thousands of large files are expensive. #buildinpublic to free this space! 💸

I'm nearing the point where my #buildinpublic project will be truly usable. 🚀

Now, I'm developing a feature for previewing the selected week. My goal is to select #photos and move them to a designated area where they can be deleted. 📸

Focusing on #iCloudPhotos stats next. 🔍

2022 was a standout year for me, and my #iCloudPhotos stats prove it! 🎉

Check out how my #buildinpublic project finds the best weeks to declutter and remove duplicate photos. 🔍

4️⃣ unique filters in action. I love how the file size stands out from other indicators. 💡

#Photos

It's alive! It's come to life! 🎉

The weekend flew by! The app is now sorting #PhotosLibrary data into categories. I'm still tweaking the refresh, but it’s coming together beautifully! 💻📸

It's a #BuildInPublic the #iCloudPhotos cleaning app. The progress is stunning! 🚀

#dev

It's Friday then 🎉
It's Saturday, Sunday, what? 🤔

🎶 💃 🕺 🎸

Starting the weekend with a dancing mood. My new #buildinpublic app is ready for the party!

Added shortcuts and highlight that shows the asset count. Still using fake data. Next week real meat!
#iCloudPhotos #dev

I finished yesterday by adding some additional stats on the screen. 📊

The graph visualizes the #iCloudPhotos library. I want a clear view of where to start cleaning and removing duplicate #photos. 📸

General stats will provide a raw overview of the library. 📈

#buildinpublic

Let's embrace the colors! 🌈

My #buildinpublic project aims to declutter 160k+ #photos to make room for new family memories. 📷

We're snapping too many pics—it's effortless. 😰

Duplicates, the same frames... And once, we had only 36 shots on a photo film... 🤦‍♂️
