## Most critical reviews (8 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-11-05, version 2.0*

It just freezes every time. Restarted phone several times and still no progress with app. It often glitches out too and closes on its own. Waste of a dollar.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-05-20, version 2.0*

Only gets about 1/3 through scan and then crashes. I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-01-29, version 1.2*

Does not work as advertised.

### 1/5 — Needs better feedback as to progress

*2016-11-20, version 1.2*

It just sits there saying "Wait to cleanup", "DONE CHECKED", and has a count for the number of duplicates (mine showed 276), but then nothing. iPhone eventually sleeps and on foreground it repeats this process starting from 0 again.  I tried keeping the iphone from sleeping but then the app just sits there with no indication or work/progress after a certain point. As another reviewer asked... can I have my time with this app refunded please!-P

So, yeah, seems pointless, doesn't actually do anything.

### 1/5 — WORTHLESS

*2016-11-19, version 1.2*

This App is WORTHLESS. I downloaded it. It began to scan my phot library. It scanned for about 45 minutes. Then it stopped. When I went to the app, it started the whole scanning process again. The only thing the App accomplished was to reduce the charge on the iPhone battery.
I recommend that you DO NOT download this app.
It is being offered FREE and is NOT WORTH IT..

### 1/5 — Will grow a beard before this finishes

*2016-11-19, version 1.2*

Downloaded to my iPad Pro and wanted to review photos for duplication.  First attempt, watched "loading image" for 15 minutes.  After 30 minutes it "loaded" 12.3GBs.   I left my iPad on to continue running....came back 3 hours later.....still "loading."  It did get to 13GBs loaded, but still "loading."

Does not seem to work.  Reminded of the spinning wheel from windows-yuck.

Can I have my time back that I wasted with this app?

### 3/5 — Cleaned ok

*2016-11-19, version 1.2*

Cleaned my photos but it deleted all my videos and there were no duplicated videos.

### 4/5 — Useful

*2016-11-23, version 1.2*

My habbit is take multiples photos at one time, therefore it wastes much of storage in my device. I think this app is useful for me, it take under 30s to scan all images in my device and found similar & duplicate photos.
