iPhone junk

Does anyone know of any good programs to clean up junk files on my iPhone. I'm currently using AVG PC Tuneup and the cleaner is broken on it right now so I'm looking for an alternative. Any suggestion?

iPhone 5, iOS 8

Do you know that the files it deletes are "unnecessary?" iOS devices like the iPhone have what is known as sandboxing, which prevents apps from accessing other apps' data, or system data. Apps that claim to "clean" usually either don't do what they claim to do, or remove something that is actually important. They are widely regarded as "unnecessary," at least in the iOS world, and often in the Mac world, too.
