It is called <a href="https://livephotocleaner.app/">LivePhotoCleaner</a>. Cynicism alert: This live photo feature surely is about nothing other than filling up more iCloud space - with the side effect of wasted energy and resources. After reading <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/34466958">David Graeber's Bullshit Jobs</a>, I can suggest that 'live photos' are surely a prime candidate for a 'bullshit feature'.</p>
