Use this very simple app to specify the path of a folder to keep clean, specify for how many days to keep the files and this simple app will run at 5:00 am every day and clean up this folder from old files. It does not traverse into sub folders and it does not delete folders. Make sure you provide a correct folder path so that you accidentally don't delete important files.

Files are checked using the "Last modified" metadata so if a file is constantly being updated, it won't be deleted. The app shows a log of recent activity which includes files that were recently deleted.

Potential uses for this app:
- Downloads folder - you probably already forgot what you have downloaded 2 weeks ago so why to keep these files around?
- Folder with log or temp files generated by some other app - you might want to keep only recent logs but logs from a week ago might be irrelevant
- A folder in which you store surveillance photos/videos generated by a surveillance app or uploaded using FTP server by an IP camera that would quickly fill up your device storage capacity otherwise
- If you found use of this app for any other type of folder content trimming, share it with us in the comments
