Ratings and reviews

I'd rather have tons of false matches after a scan than none at all. Hard to find android apps that scan similar photos instead of pure duplicates out there. App crashes sometimes for me when selecting a photo, but it overall works as intended. Very consistent with the matches it finds and quick to scan too.

Not updated since 2019, should have been my first sign. App crashes any time a gif is selected or a gif next to a still image (jpg). It's good at finding and deleting duplicate still images but the only details given are the size. It would help a lot more to know the folder path.

This app has potential, but it's half baked. At its default similarity setting of 91%, it came back with hundreds (I don't know how many, it didn't say) of false matches, where the images were nothing alike. Even when the images were valid matches, it provided no information about them except their size; no name, location, etc., so it's difficult to decide which version to keep. Also, the search takes a very long time, in part because you can't tell it locations to search or ignore.
