Your library

Your whole library.

Reductio reads it on your iPhone. Nothing leaves it, and nothing changes while it looks.

See what can shrink.

Older JPEG, PNG and H.264 stand out. Live Photos, RAW, HDR gain maps, edited and already efficient items stay as they are.

Same memories. Less space.

Camera photos come out nearly half the size as HEIC, each copy checked before you decide. Your originals stay until you say yes.

Example library. Savings vary from photo to photo.

Careful by design.

Every copy is measured, checked and yours to decide. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is lost.

Look closely.

Drag across an original and its HEIC copy. In the app, pinch into faces, text and texture, or switch video versions at the very same moment.

Lake Louise by Daniel Roe. 53% smaller on this photo; some save more, some less, some nothing at all.

Protected by default.

Some things are better left exactly as they are.

  • Live Photos
  • RAW
  • HDR gain maps
  • Edited

Nothing goes without your yes.

Every copy is saved as a separate item and checked: the picture, its date, place, caption, keywords and albums. Then you choose.

Private by nature.

Everything happens on your iPhone or iPad. No account, no tracking, no ads, no analytics.

Space, given back.

Every result stays in History. If something is interrupted, Reductio checks what happened and carries on. Recovery never costs a thing.

Exact duplicates, cleared.

Byte-for-byte copies are found for you. The one you keep stays in every album the others were in.

Try it free. Keep it forever.

Questions.

Will my photos look worse?

HEIC and HEVC are lossy, like the JPEG and H.264 they replace, and they store detail more efficiently. Most photos look the same, but fine texture or text can differ slightly. That’s why you can compare every copy before saving it, and why your original stays until you choose.

How much space will I get back?

It depends on your library. Camera photos typically come out nearly half the size, some even smaller, and older videos often save more. Photos that were already compressed, like ones saved from messages, save less, and some aren’t worth converting at all. Reductio measures a sample on your device first, for free, so you know before you change anything.

When do I get the space back?

Removed originals go to Recently Deleted in Photos. Photos frees the space when you empty it, or after about 30 days, and syncs the change with iCloud Photos.

Which items can be made smaller?

Ordinary JPEG and opaque PNG photos and H.264 videos. HEIC and HEVC are already efficient. Live Photos, RAW, HDR gain maps, edited and other specialist items are protected and never changed.

Do my photos leave my device?

No. Reductio does everything on your iPhone or iPad. If an original is stored only in iCloud, Photos downloads it when you allow that.

Is there a subscription?

No. Reductio Pro is one Lifetime purchase, with no renewals and nothing to cancel. Your first 10 optimisations are free, and you can restore Pro on your other devices from Settings in Reductio.

What if something is interrupted?

Every step is recorded. Reductio checks what actually happened and continues safely. It never guesses and never repeats a removal, and recovery is always free.

re·duc·ti·o

/rɪˈdʌk.ti.oʊ/ · Latin, “a bringing back”

Bringing things back to what matters. Everything that isn’t needed is taken away, and every memory stays. That’s how Reductio treats your library, and how it was made.

Make room for more.
