New in 2.0

Your photo library, counted.

Photo Statistic analyzes the photos and videos already on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and shows you when and where you took them. Drill down from years to months, days, and hours. See your library grow on a chart. Explore it on a map. All privately, on your device. New in 2.0: compare two devices and find the photos a stuck iCloud sync left behind.

Everything your library can tell you

No accounts, no uploads, no setup. Open the app, tap one button, and explore.

From years down to hours

Your library becomes a timeline you can open like nested drawers: years, months, days, hours, and finally the pictures themselves.

Charts that answer questions

Stacked bars show photos in purple and videos in yellow. Tap a bar to see the numbers and jump right into that period.

A map made of hexagons

Geotagged photos cluster into honeycomb cells with counts. Adjust the cell size from 1 to 100 km and tap any cell to see its pictures.

Mark your favorites

Select the shots you love, pinch to resize the grid, and collect them into a real album in the Photos app with one tap.

Apple Intelligence and Siri

Ask in plain language and land on the right screen, or get a spoken answer without opening the app. Export CSV, JSON, or PDF through Shortcuts.

Repair a stuck iCloud sync

Compare two devices over the local network, see exactly which photos and videos are missing on which one, and let iCloud carry them across.

Private by design

Analysis happens entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, nothing in your library is ever changed or deleted.

When iCloud says "8 items still to sync"

And keeps saying it for weeks. Photo Statistic finds out exactly which photos and videos are stuck and nudges iCloud into carrying them across. Two devices, one wizard, and nothing is changed without your confirmation.

The device comparison wizard comparing both libraries month by month
  1. Let the devices find each other Tap the antenna button above the year list on both devices, pick the other one by name, and accept on that side. On the Mac: Edit > Compare with Nearby Device.
  2. Compare, step by step Totals first, then year by year, month by month, and day by day, until it is clear which items are missing on which device.
  3. Let iCloud catch up Each device collects the items the other one is missing into the app's album. iCloud picks them up from there. Compare again later and the difference should be zero.

What it needs, and what it never does

  • Two devices on the same iCloud account and the same network, with iCloud Photos on and full photo access granted
  • Only counts and anonymous identifiers travel between them - no photo ever leaves your devices
  • Every step asks first, and the wizard can be cancelled at any time
  • Your photos and videos are never changed or deleted; the only thing written is the app's own album

Ask in your own words

Two ways to reach your numbers without opening the app: describe what you want and land on it, or ask a question and hear the answer.

Apple Intelligence

Say it however you like

Photo Statistic registers with the system-wide photo search, so a request in plain language opens the app right at the matching screen. No phrase to memorize.

Show me my photos from March 2026
My photos from last month
Photos from 2019
Siri

Get the answer out loud

Named phrases answer while the app stays closed. Siri also responds to the shorter names Photo Report and Photo Stats.

Photo Report for last month
How many photos did I take with Photo Statistic?
Photo Statistic count videos

Left out the time period? Siri asks for it.

"Photo Statistic report"
Which time period?
Recent, Months and Years, Whole Library, or Choose a Period. Pick a specific month, year, date range, or any number of days, and Siri asks that one follow-up question too.
"You captured 4,510 photos and 302 videos in March 2026."

Make it your own

Four actions in the Shortcuts app turn your library into a report, a spreadsheet, or a number you can build on. Everything runs without opening the app.

  1. Add the action In Shortcuts, tap the plus button, choose Add Action, and search for Photo Statistic.
  2. Pick a period Today, last month, a specific year, a date range, or any number of days back.
  3. Name it The name you give the shortcut becomes the phrase that starts it: "Hey Siri, my photo year".
