How is GalleryJury different from Clever Cleaner?

Disclosure: GalleryJury is our app, coming soon to Android. On iPhone, GalleryJury is no substitute for Clever Cleaner: ours is Android only. Like Clever Cleaner, GalleryJury looks for repeated shots, but it picks one best photo from each group for you instead of leaving the choice to you, and it also clears junk screenshots and forwarded images. Clever Cleaner lists App Store (US) in-app purchases from $6.99 to $39.99; GalleryJury plans a one-off $5 for 5,000 photos after 50 free. Clever Cleaner also sells a lifetime option on iPhone, which avoids a renewing plan if you choose it on the paywall.
