Smart CleanerYour next steps
Identify still-useful records
Look for tickets, receipts, reference numbers and information you still need. A screenshot’s age does not tell you whether it is disposable.
Give keeps a home
Save records to an appropriate folder or service and open them there. Include useful names or context so they remain understandable.
Review expired captures
Look for completed errands, duplicated shopping references and temporary instructions. Read the contents before selecting them.
Confirm a small batch
Check the final removal set. Avoid publicly uploading sensitive screenshots to a tool just to organize them.
Choose the right action
| Your priority | A useful approach | Before you act |
|---|---|---|
| Keep the original | Retain the full-quality or meaningful version; review replaceable content elsewhere first. | A smaller copy may not preserve edits, movement or all detail. |
| Remove an unwanted item | Inspect it, verify any necessary independent copy and approve only the intended selection. | Deletion in a synced library can affect other devices. Permanent removal ends recovery. |
Where Smart Cleaner helps
Smart Cleaner brings screenshots together for review, making it easier to separate temporary captures from records.
What it does not do
It cannot determine retention requirements or know whether a screenshot is your only copy.

Questions you might still have
Can I remove every screenshot older than a year?
Age alone is not enough. Receipts and other records may still be needed.
Does the website read my screenshots?
The browser photo tools process only files you choose, locally. Scenario pages do not scan or receive your library.
