CO₂free –your climate app
CO₂free is the first app that lets you actively improve your carbon footprint. Our app makes your digital lifestyle climate neutral. With just one swipe, you can delete selected photos and videos and reduce your CO₂ emissions.
How does it work? Our app detects unnecessary data on your smartphone and makes it easier than ever to delete this data quickly and directly. This reduces the energy consumption of your device and makes it more climate-friendly. Not only will your smartphone be faster with less data junk, you'll also be saving the environment because each saved image consumes real resources.
Today, terabytes, petabytes and zettabytes of data are stored on servers and in clouds, requiring huge amounts of energy. By 2025, the amount of data generated annually will increase to 175 zettabytes, generating around 4.2 billion tons of CO₂.

The three core functions of the
CO₂ App
Recognize
Our app scans the files, photos and videos on your smartphone and shows you at a glance how much greenhouse gas they cause
Reduce
A lot of data on your smartphone is outdated or obsolete - for example, because the perfect selfie often doesn't succeed on the first try. Our app suggests such photos and videos; you can delete them with just one swipe.
Compensate
With the app, you can ask us to decommission CO₂ certificates to offset your remaining footprint. You also get a climate protection plus, because the app eats less energy than we compensate for each download.
