One day, one little page Make tidying your photos a small daily ritual

Writing your journal, auto pages, iCloud sync, tapping devices together and joining shared journals are free. Free users can also send 20 letters (writing back doesn’t count) with up to 6 photos each, start up to five shared journals, make 3 journal videos and make 50 new keep or queue decisions a day; one eligible completed share adds 25 that day. Pro is a one-time purchase for iPhone and iPad. For the journal: unlimited videos, whole books as PDF and sharing without the PicLoom mark. For letters: unlimited letters, letters that keep and wait, 12 photos in each, unlimited shared journals and the Pro stamp. For reviewing: no daily limit and trip albums in one tap. Plus exclusive themes, app icons and the Pro identity badge. Pearl and Blue are free themes. Future optional services may be sold separately.

Yes. Photos, videos and Live Photos all enter the review flow. Play a video, or hold a Live Photo in the viewer, before choosing to keep or queue it. A Live Photo remains one item, not two review decisions.

Yes. Tap Recent again on the Review screen to pick a pile: Photos, Screenshots, Videos, Live Photos, Blurry or Duplicates. Duplicates groups identical copies and similar burst shots, suggests one to keep and never preselects favorites. Photos you set aside go to To Delete and count like a swipe; you can change them until you confirm, and iOS asks before anything is removed. The checks run on your iPhone, from thumbnails already on the device, and nothing is uploaded.

No. It only adds the item to the deletion queue. Undo your latest choice, or revise choices in review history. iOS asks for confirmation before deletion. Recently Deleted normally keeps items for up to 30 days; follow the date shown by the system. Measured size removed is not the same as instantly available storage.

When you can't decide, swipe the photo up into the thought bubble. It stays in your library and waits in Think again, which appears in the Recent menu when it has photos; open it whenever you're ready. Now and then one of these photos comes back in a batch, marked Last time unsure. Choosing Think again counts as one review.

No. Recommended and What's inside are worked out on your iPhone from small thumbnails. When PicLoom is unsure, the card asks, for example Is this a cat?, and your answer stays on this device. You can always just swipe.

Yes. Swipe a photo up to keep it and add it to an album; albums fan out above the card, and you can pin up to 3 you use most. This is free, and each swipe up counts as one keep. With Pro, a whole trip from the Footprints map can be saved as an album in one tap. Albums live in the iOS Photos app: PicLoom only adds photos, and never removes, edits or uploads them.

Only as much as you want. On days worth keeping (a trip, a new city, a holiday, a birthday or an activity milestone) PicLoom lays out a page from that day’s photos and leaves it for you to keep, edit or skip. Photos are not uploaded.

Neither is required. Write about today or any past day on the paper page; words alone make a page. Photos, stickers, tape, drawing and the day’s Apple Health activity are optional, and unfinished pages stay as drafts. Your words are your own and are never sent to an AI.

The app and widgets support English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French and Spanish. iPhone requires iOS 17 or later. Activity phrases and cards use the journal language set in Settings → Journal; your words are never translated.

Use the App Store account you purchased with and choose Restore Purchases in Settings or Pro. Apple’s actual configuration determines price, availability, Family Sharing and refunds.
