RAW photos

See RAW photos taking iPhone storage

RAW, ProRAW and imported media keep more image information than a regular photo. That helps editing, but it can also fill Photos faster.

Tasnif helps review selected media before deletion.

Why RAW files matter for storage

A RAW photo can occupy much more space than a compressed image. In an iPhone library, a few RAW series, camera imports or ProRAW experiments can weigh more than they appear to in the grid.

Tasnif helps review these files with the same principle as large videos: show known occupied space, keep control and delete nothing without the Apple Photos confirmation.

When to review them

  • After a photo session where ProRAW was enabled.
  • After imports from a camera or another app.
  • When iPhone storage is almost full but large videos do not explain everything.

RAW files are not bad. They simply deserve to be visible when storage gets tight.
