Honest storage cleaner

Cacher

Cacher shows what is actually taking up space and removes exactly what you pick. One scan covers the whole file side of the phone — media junk, the Downloads folder and the places Android keeps out of sight — and the results are grouped by how safe each thing is to delete, not by file type. Finding and deleting are free. Real numbers, no scare tactics, and the whole scan runs on the phone itself.

Cacher

One scan, one list — sorted by the only question you actually ask: is this safe to delete?
One scan Media junk, the Downloads folder and the deep places in a single run. No guessing which button finds what.
Sorted by risk Definitely junk, Worth a look, Your call. Only the first group carries a Select all.
App caches One run over many apps. Where Android hides the button, Cacher walks you to it instead of pretending.
Squeeze media See how much re-encoding your videos and photos would give back — that number is free. The squeezing itself is Cacher+.
Confirmed, not claimed Cleared 494 MB

A cleanup counts as done only when the system confirms the cache actually shrank.

Nothing pre-selected You see the full list first and pick what goes. In every group of duplicates and similar photos the shot Cacher would keep is protected and cannot be selected.

What it does

  • The home screen shows free space at a glance and how it changed over the last days. Tapping the trend opens the full history.
  • One scan covers the whole file side: old screenshots, similar photos, blank shots, duplicates, and large files you forgot about.
  • The same scan lays out the Downloads folder by kind — app installers, archives, documents, media, and everything else — and reaches what the media library never shows: empty folders, leftovers of uninstalled apps, APK installers, system litter, older backup copies, and the media messengers saved on your phone.
  • Results are grouped by risk rather than by file type, because the question before every checkbox is always the same one: is this really safe to remove? “Definitely junk” has a Select all; “Worth a look” and “Your call” you go through yourself.
  • Media are deleted into the system recycle bin and can be brought back for about 30 days; other files go permanently. The confirmation splits the two plainly — 12 files to the bin, 4 deleted for good.
  • Clears app caches app by app. On some phones it taps the button for you; where the system keeps that button out of reach, it opens each storage screen and steps aside so you tap it yourself. Cacher checks your phone and tells you which one it is.
  • Lists apps you have not opened for months, so you can decide what to uninstall.
  • Runs on Android 8.0 and newer. Deep clean needs “All files access”, which Android only offers from version 11. What the platform does not allow on your version is shown greyed out with the reason, not quietly missing.

Honest by design

  • Cacher frees storage space — that is its whole job, and the only thing it claims to do.
  • Nothing is pre-selected for deletion, and in every group of duplicates and similar photos the shot Cacher would keep is protected.
  • Results are measured, not estimated: a cleanup is reported only when the system confirms it.
  • Where Android offers a recycle bin, deletion goes there first and stays undoable for about 30 days. Where it does not, the app says so plainly before you confirm.
  • Development is paid for by the people who choose Cacher+.
  • Everything Cacher finds, the free version also deletes.

Privacy

  • Everything runs on your device: the scan reads your storage locally and the results stay in the app.
  • The permissions it asks for — storage, usage access and notifications — are the ones the scan and the cleanup need.
  • Permissions are requested step by step; the first scan needs no special access at all, and deep clean asks for all-files access only when you open it.
  • Writing to support composes the email for you — including an optional diagnostics file you can read in full first — but your own mail app sends it.
  • Similar photos and blank shots are worked out on the device. The measurements are kept in the app's own database on the phone, so the next scan is instant.
  • The accessibility service is optional and off by default. While a cleanup you started runs, it reads the text of the settings screen it opened — that is how the button is found. Between cleanups it is subscribed to no screen events, and one tap withdraws it.

Cacher+

  • Everything that finds and deletes is free: the whole scan, including similar photos and blank shots, the Downloads breakdown, deep clean, app caches, and unused apps.
  • Squeezing media is the one cleanup step Cacher+ performs: video re-encoded down to 1080p, photos re-encoded at high quality, and the original waiting about 30 days in the recycle bin. Seeing how much it would free costs nothing. Needs Android 11 or newer.
  • It also adds analytics with cleanup history, scheduled scans with a quiet report, smart rules, themes and alternative icons, a widget and a Quick Settings tile, and app groups.
  • Sold only through Google Play; prices and taxes are shown by Play for your country, and it is cancelled from the Play subscriptions center.
