### 1/5 — Re-indexes every time

*2026-08-19*

My iPhone has a large photo library, around 140,000 images.

Cluster says it will take about half an hour to index. I do something else on the phone and come back later, and it has to re-index.
It continually has to re-index, so I can't use it. 

It's a very nice idea – wish I could use it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Cluster indexes photos on each launch — previously indexed photos are automatically skipped. Indexing does not run in the background.

When you see the counter start at 0 again, that’s progress for the remaining photos only, not a restart: for example, if 200 were indexed before, the next launch will show progress out of the remaining total (e.g., 0/139,800), not 0/140,000. 

It can look like a reset since the number resets to 0, but no work is being redone. Happy to look into ways to make that clearer in the UI — feel free to reach out at johndewey02003@gmail.com
