This whole thing is just a lie does not work like it is said to

This app is a cool idea on how to clear out photos, but there is so much lag to it. Every time I delete photos I have to wait 20 seconds until I can delete more.

### 4/5 — Great app too many ads

The app picks out the duplicate and the similar pictures and then gives you options to select and delete (or not) the excess or unwanted ones.
