Running out of iPhone storage? Duplicate Photo & Video Finder finds duplicate and similar photos and videos, helps you keep the best versions, and safely clears the copies you no longer need. Your photo library can quietly fill with repeated shots, near-identical photos, duplicate videos, screenshots, and other unnecessary copies. Instead of searching through thousands of items yourself, scan your library and let smart detection group potential duplicates for you. SMART DUPLICATE DETECTION Go beyond simple file matching. Multiple detection methods work together to identify exact duplicates and visually similar photos, helping you find copies that filenames and basic file comparisons can miss. PHOTO & VIDEO CLEANUP Find duplicate photos and duplicate videos in one place. Review groups, compare items, and decide exactly what stays and what gets removed. SMART RANKING Not sure which photo to keep? Smart Ranking helps identify the strongest version in a duplicate group using factors such as resolution, sharpness, format, faces, and metadata. REVIEW BEFORE YOU DELETE You stay in control. Inspect your matches, compare photos side by side, select what you want to remove, and confirm each deletion. Nothing is removed without your decision. SAFE & RECOVERABLE Deleted items are moved through Apple's Photos deletion system rather than being immediately erased. Undo your recent cleanup when you change your mind and keep a clear history of your cleanup activity. PRIVATE ON-DEVICE ANALYSIS Your photo library is personal. Duplicate analysis runs on your device, using Apple's frameworks and on-device processing rather than uploading your photos to a remote server for duplicate detection. SEE YOUR CLEANUP PROGRESS Track your cleanup with useful statistics, including duplicate groups found, items removed, and storage recovered. BUILT FOR YOUR LIBRARY • Duplicate photo detection • Similar photo detection • Duplicate video detection • Perceptual and cryptographic matching • Vision-based similarity analysis • Smart photo ranking • Side-by-side comparison • Safe deletion and recovery • Undo support • Cleanup statistics • Light and Dark Mode • iPhone and iPad support A CLEANER LIBRARY, WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK Scan your library, review the results, keep the photos and videos that matter, and remove the unnecessary copies taking up valuable storage.
