NeutralEyes
On-Device NSFW Scanning Without a Vault
Scan photos and folders for NSFW content entirely on device — and keep your files exactly where they are. The first scanner of its kind that doesn't lock results inside a proprietary vault you then have to live in.
NeutralEyes scans photos and folders for NSFW content on device, using Apple's own frameworks. Nothing is uploaded, and no model has to be downloaded from a third party.
Every comparable tool ends the same way
results get filed into the app's own encrypted vault, and from then on your library lives inside someone else's container. NeutralEyes does the opposite.
Files stay put
Results are a list, not a jail. Your originals never move unless you move them, and you move them wherever you like — Finder, an external drive, another app.
Metadata survives
Dates, GPS and everything else stay intact, and exports from Photos use the full-quality originals. Nothing is stripped or re-encoded on the way out.
Folder and album scanning
Point it at a folder, an album, or a whole drive and let it work through the queue. A library of roughly 40,000 photos finishes in under ten minutes, though that depends on the size of your photos and on your device.
On device, always
No network calls, no accounts, no telemetry — the app contains no networking code at all. The scan happens on your hardware and the results never leave it.
On accuracy
this is AI, and AI makes mistakes. If you are depending on the absolute removal of an image, a human review of the results is the only thing that guarantees it.
Every app, one click away
Paid once. Never a subscription.
NeutralEyes costs $9.99, once — no subscription, no upsell, no "pro" tier waiting behind it. If it saved you an afternoon, that was the point. If it annoyed you, the inbox is right there.
