Copy the text out of a screenshot, a photo or a PDF. It is read on your own computer.

Or describe the picture.
ByteSweep looks at your pictures on your own computer, so you can find one by what it shows, whatever it is called.
- A descriptionWith the download3 pictures
- A descriptionWith the download2 pictures
- What is in it3 pictures
- Colour4 pictures

-
By colour
Type “pink” or “blue” and the pictures that colour stands out in are listed. There is nothing to download for this.
-
By what is in it
“Beach”, “dog” or “receipt” lists the pictures that show one. On a Mac this works straight away, with Apple’s own picture recognition. On Windows it comes with the download.
-
By a whole description
“Pink shirt”. “Dog on a beach”. A one-time download of about 77 MB, started from the Library, understands sentences like these. It is the same on Mac and Windows.
Your pictures are looked at on your computer and are never uploaded. Descriptions are understood in English.
More than a cleaner
Making room is where it starts. Pick a part, or keep scrolling.
Space, found
ByteSweep finds what you no longer need. You decide what goes.
- Temporary files, old downloads and the Trash
- A map of what is using your disk
- Your biggest files, largest first
- A tidier Downloads folder
- Photos and videos saved by chat and mail apps

Photos and files, sorted
Years of photos and files pile up. ByteSweep helps you go through them.

- Duplicate photos, files and whole folders
- Smaller videos and photos, without deleting them
- Photos changed to a format that opens anywhere
- Rarely used files moved to an external drive, and still easy to find
