Learn how CTRL+ALT+EX works, how your data stays private, and how to join the beta.
What is CTRL+ALT+EX and how does it work?
Get up to speed on CTRL+ALT+EX in minutes. Learn how the app works and what it can do for you.
What exactly does CTRL+ALT+EX do?
Upload one photo of your ex, and CTRL+ALT+EX gets to work — scanning your entire camera roll for matching faces. Review every result, decide what stays and what goes, and move on. No cloud uploads, no data sharing. Everything runs privately, right on your device.
How does the AI photo matching work?
Upload a reference photo of your ex and let CTRL+ALT+EX do the rest. The AI analyzes their facial features and scans your entire camera roll for matches. You review the results and decide what stays and what goes.
Can I review photos before deleting them?
Yes. Every match the AI finds is shown to you first. You can review each photo and choose to delete it or skip it. Nothing is removed without your approval.
Does CTRL+ALT+EX work on both iPhone and Android?
Currently available on iPhone during the private beta. Android is in development and coming soon — join the waitlist to be first in line when it launches.
How long does it take to scan my entire camera roll?
Scan time depends on the number of photos in your library. Most scans complete in seconds to a few minutes. The process runs locally on your device, so it's fast and doesn't rely on internet speed.
Can I use CTRL+ALT+EX on multiple devices?
During beta, each device runs scans independently. Your photos stay on your device, and you control each scan separately. Future updates may introduce cross-device features.

Is my data secure when using the CTRL+ALT+EX app?
Your photos never leave your phone. CTRL+ALT+EX processes everything locally on your device — no uploads, no external servers, no exceptions. Your memories stay yours.

All photo processing happens directly on your device. Your images are never uploaded to our servers or stored in the cloud. CTRL+ALT+EX scans and identifies photos locally, ensuring your data remains completely private.
Can CTRL+ALT+EX see my photos?
No. CTRL+ALT+EX never accesses, stores, or views your photo library. Our AI runs entirely on your device, identifying potential matches for your review only. You decide what stays and what goes — no one else ever sees your camera roll.
What happens to my reference photo after scanning?
Your reference photo is processed entirely on your device and never stored by CTRL+ALT+EX. It exists only to identify matches during the scan and stays fully under your control.
Is my data encrypted?
Yes. CTRL+ALT+EX uses industry-standard security practices. Combined with on-device processing, this ensures your photos and personal data remain secure throughout the entire experience.
Do you share my data with third parties?
No. CTRL+ALT+EX does not sell, share, or trade your data with third parties. Your photo library and scanning activity stay completely private.
Is CTRL+ALT+EX safe to use during the private beta?
