### 2/5 — Good but Not I wanted

*2026-01-18, version 1.05*

It group similar photos rather duplicated photos.   Not for me at this stage

### 5/5 — By far the best similar photo finder

*2025-12-21*

It’s amazing how many apps there are out there that try to find similar and duplicate photos, but none match the ease of this one.

### 1/5 — .

*2025-11-20, version 1.05*

Nothing similar between the photos

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-02-26, version 1.05*

Probably could do better at finding the same pictures across different date ranges but so far it’s the better. Would also be good to create albums from this

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-01-19*

Love it, so much better than apps where you swipe and can only see one photo at a time. So easy just liking all the photos you want to keep and then at the press of a button the rest are deleted. Would love an option to sort my whole camera roll in the same way, not just similar and duplicate photos!

### 3/5 — Does not compare all photos

*2024-08-20*

Only those from sMe day

### 4/5 — 4/5

*2024-06-09*

It’s AMAZING ONLY THING IS TJAY IT SELETS ALL OF THE PHOTOS BIT JUST THE NOT JUST THE SIMILAR ONES

### 5/5 — Picture

*2024-04-14*

This is the Best app. for removing duplicate and it gives more space so give it a try and I guarantee you’ll love it…

### 4/5 — Great little app

*2024-01-09, version 1.05*

Love this app. Does what it says it does without any unnecessary crap.

If I could ask for improvements, I’d ask for the ability to perform bulk actions and an improved user interface — the current one can feel clunky at times, even if perfectly functional. 

Would be more than happy to make a one time payment for a more capable version of the app too, just don’t make it a subscription, please!

### 5/5 — Amazing!!

*2023-12-27, version 1.05*

This app deserves 6 stars!! 
It’s free, fast and does the job!! Haven’t seen such a good app for a while. 

Also will save on storage money because of these guys, thank you!
