Discover Filters
Filter your iPhone library by large photos, large videos, downloads, photos without faces, overexposed shots, food photos and an aesthetic score.
Discover (the Deep Cleanup tab) shows what the main scan doesn't: it filters your library by type, size and quality. Instant filters cover videos, large photos (5 MB+), large videos (100 MB+) and downloaded images. A detailed scan adds photos without faces, overexposed shots, food photos and a 1–10 aesthetic score.

Frequently asked questions
What is the aesthetic score?
A 1–10 tier based on Apple's on-device image aesthetics analysis. It helps surface your weakest shots, such as accidental or poorly composed photos.
How do I find photos saved from WhatsApp?
Use the Downloaded filter in Discover. It lists images without camera information or from download albums, which typically come from messaging apps and the web.
