What Duplicate Image Detector does

  • Find exact and look-alike copies

    Scan a selected folder, or the photos in Photos after you grant access. Choose Exact, Similar or Both matching and adjust how closely photos should match.

  • Compare copies side by side

    Open each group with real previews and file details. Compare a pair side by side, then decide which photo is worth keeping.

  • Keep the copy you choose

    Keeper preferences can help, but you can choose a different copy yourself.

  • Review the space before cleanup

    See the selected file count and estimated space before anything is marked for cleanup. The automatic selection rules do not mark the only copy.

  • Move extras to Trash, and undo

    Trash is the default cleanup destination, with a confirmation step. Supported cleanup actions can be undone while their recovery option is still available.

Questions

Does it change my original files?

Only the copies you mark are moved, and only after you confirm. Trash is the default cleanup destination.

Can I undo a cleanup?

Supported cleanup actions can be undone while their recovery option is still available.

Will it mark the only copy?

No. The automatic selection rules do not mark the only copy, and you can protect specific folders from automatic marking.

Are look-alike photos truly the same?

Similarity is a guide, not proof that two photos are interchangeable. Review the copies you mark before cleaning up.

What's new
