### 2/5 — Не мог войти в Яндекс. Диск

*2026-03-04*

Верните деньги! Не могу зайти в Яндекс. Диск. Поддержка не отвечает. В возврате средств отказали!

Дополнение. Через 4 дня всё-таки зашёл в Яндекс. Диск. Но поддержка все равно так и не ответила

### 2/5 — No photo option

*2025-10-02, version 2.6.0*

Does not give you an option to scan Google photos. Just the drive. Waste money

### 3/5 — Good, but….

*2025-06-15*

Would luv to be able to choose the exact duplicate to delete, when there are more than 2.

### 4/5 — Works on dropbox  but

*2025-06-13, version 2.6.0*

Hi, I have gemini2 that was not working on any file on dropbox. Now this works. BUT. I need something like Gemini to filter the filters I want to keep. I wanted to compared the dropbox « Upload folder » that took images from mobiles to the one I already moved in a big «  Coaching » folder. It contains so many folders, and files, many are duplicate by design, but I only want the jpeg and mp4 files to be filtered. And then I want to be sure it’s not either the older or the newer but the one in the « upload folder » that get deleted.

### 2/5 — A lot of stuff to do

*2025-04-06*

Generally it looks like a kind of a beta or work in progress release. It has nearly no settings, no flexibility. Finds all the duplicates. Sorting is made according to the author’s understanding of harmony (no way to sort the files by size for example), no way to cutoff small files, no way to look for folder duplicates. Only “scan all” or “select folder” before the scan and an option to choose one of the duplicates to stay or keep all after (well, imagine that I have 6 duplicates and want to keep two). At the moment it is not worth money. Sorry, guys.

### 4/5 — Good but not great

*2025-03-08*

I recently paid £7 to download the DeDuplicate app in order to delete 1000's of Dropbox duplicate photos.
Whilst the app is easy to use, the results are dissapointing - whilst over 8,000 duplicates have been deleted, there still remains duplicate photos in my Dropbox, despite running the program again, not only for 'Photos' in my Dropbox, but additionally running Deduplicate for the entire Dropbox content.

### 3/5 — A bit underhanded

*2025-01-22*

The app only lets you know AFTER YOU BUY IT that it cannot really connect with Google drive except for one-hour stints after an elaborate rigamarole to gain temporary access to the drive. Not very honest.

### 2/5 — В Гугл не заходит, просит обойти блокировку, удалил, похоже на трояна

*2025-01-15*

В Гугл не заходит, просит обойти блокировку, удалил, похоже на трояна

### 3/5 — Не работает с яндекс диск

*2024-12-10*

Не возможно просканировать яндекс диск т. к требуется зайти в свой аккаунт, пуш уведомление приходит не понятно куда. не качайте если хотите проверять дубликаты на чндекс

### 4/5 — Google drive users !

*2024-10-02*

Please don’t buy this ! I bought it. They ask you to follow a complex process, yet it is frustrating. It still doesn’t work!!

### 2/5 — Doesn't work for Mega

*2024-07-04*

For some reason odd, this doesn't work with Mega. It fails to delete the duplicates in Mega.
Unfortunately, the dev seems to have dropped the support for this, at least temporarily. I now have to rely on rclone to get the job done.

### 1/5 — NO FUNCIONA

*2024-01-16, version 2.0.4*

Más de 12 mil fotos en OneDrive y solo ha encontrado 100 duplicadas cuando más de la mitad lo son.. He pagado 8,99€ para nada

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE

*2026-06-01*

Downloaded and attempted to use immediately after purchase. The app repeatedly displayed Error 403 and PERMISSION_DENIED messages and was unable to perform its advertised function. Unfortunately, I was unable to use the service I paid for.

APPLE WILL NOT REFUND 
IVE LOST £7.99 I’m FUMING

### 1/5 — Not working - asked for refund

*2025-11-20*

Google has revoked trusted access for this app, and although the developer is offering a workaround (via a developer access token), it’s kicking back errors. Requesting a refund.

### 1/5 — Waste of money and time

*2025-09-23*

Doesn’t work especially with Google Drive shows no files

### 1/5 — Didn't work with my GDrive

*2025-07-26, version 2.6.0*

Sent feedback, waiting for reponse

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2025-04-29*

Не работает с Яндекс диск

### 1/5 — Failed on Large Data Set

*2025-01-16*

I used this to analyze files stored in my Google Drive. For smaller folders it worked great. For my larger folders it ran, showed what files needed to be removed, then asked me to re-login (because it ran for longer than 60 minutes). I attempted to provide it the previous token but it would not work, then I generated a new token which was also not accepted. In the end it got stuck in an infinite loop asking me for a token I couldn’t provide, and therefore could not remove the duplicate files it detected. I reached out to the creator for technical help but, despite his promise to debug issues, I didn’t hear back from him and it’s been a week. Should have bought a sandwich with my $8 instead :)

### 1/5 — Repeated error messages

*2024-11-20*

It simply did not work. It would say I had no duplicates but then it said that an error card. This happened repeatedly. I use a different app and it cleared over 70,000 files from my drive.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2024-11-06*

Яндекс диск, не видит одинаковые файлы, деньги на ветер

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on Onedrive

*2024-07-19, version 2.0.6*

I tried to connect this app to my onedrive and it never worked.

### 1/5 — Google Drive

*2024-03-01*

App not working on finding duplicates files in Google Drive

### 5/5 — Works great, worth the price

*2026-06-23*

Worked great for dropbox! Cleared dozens of GBs of data for me out of my 2.5TB of data within 10 mins

### 5/5 — Great for Google Drive

*2026-01-04*

My Google Drive was an absolute mess with literally thousands of duplicates and storage nearly full. 
After battling with it for hours, I asked AI what to do and found my way to this app. A few minutes later it was sorted, having located all duplicates and moving them to the trash folder. Very easy to use & worth it.

### 5/5 — :D

*2025-12-18, version 2.6.0*

Works perfectly

### 5/5 — worked well on dropbox

*2025-08-11*

A big time saver - nice UI

### 5/5 — Super fast

*2025-05-17*

Did exactly what I needed it to - cleaned my Google drive of duplicates!

### 5/5 — Real deal

*2024-10-17*

The app performed fast and perfectly!  I ran it against my two cloud drives (google and onedrive)that I needed to clean before consolidating (still haven’t made up my mind but leaning towards google (better tech support)) 745gb and 375gb respectively.  Both done in <10 mins.  Awesome app and definitely worth $8 or 1.5 starbucks coffees. 👍😊

### 5/5 — Legit great app

*2024-10-17*

This app does what it’s advertised to do.    I’ve tried; other solutions that had allot of headaches.   I mainly use with OneDrive and highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Done and done.

*2024-02-17*

Amazing app that does exactly what it says it will do.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much! 🏆 Heads up, just in case... this app comes as an "universal purchase": once you got it, you can use it on your iPhone/iPad AND Mac!

### 5/5 — Reliable solution for OneDrive De-Dupe!

*2023-09-18*

This app is quite impressive and has been a reliable option for de-duplication in OneDrive! Amazingly fast scan speeds.  The free ad supported version is just as functional as the paid version - eventually I did upgrade to avoid the ads.    It’s nice to see app development that has a freemium intro option that allows you to fully see if the app works for you before purchase.   Bravo

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-07-07*

I’ve been dreaming about this! I have a problem with uploading the same files over and over! This is easily worth the two ads I had to watch. Great service! 🙌🏻
