What is Commit Photos?
Commit Photos is a macOS application designed for iCloud users to efficiently manage and clean their iCloud Photo Library. It transforms a user's photo collection into an intuitive visual contribution graph, providing insights into storage usage and helping identify unwanted media. The platform aims to simplify the process of organizing photos, reclaiming storage space, and eliminating duplicates or forgotten screenshots, all while maintaining the integrity of the user's photo timeline. It offers a native macOS interface with powerful filtering and review capabilities.
How to use Commit Photos
Users can download and install Commit Photos on their macOS device. The application seamlessly integrates with their synced iCloud Photo Library. To use it, users can visualize their photo activity via the contribution graph, apply smart filters to isolate specific media types (like photos, videos, or large files), and review detailed statistics on storage usage. The "Review Mode" allows users to safely select and commit removals with full control. While the app is free to download, some advanced functionalities require a premium subscription, available for 1 month, 1 year, or a lifetime purchase, with prices detailed within the app. Subscriptions are managed via iTunes Account settings.
