How to duplicate photo finder

Exact duplicates have identical bytes. Visually similar images may have different names, resolution or compression settings. A difference hash compares coarse changes between adjacent pixel brightness samples, so it is useful for discovering likely matches but can also produce false positives. Always confirm visually before deleting originals.

  1. Select several files from your photo folder.
  2. Choose exact matches or visual similarity and adjust the sensitivity.
  3. Review grouped previews, compare dimensions and export a CSV audit report.

Accuracy, privacy and limitations

Browsers cannot delete files from your computer. Similarity signatures are heuristic and may miss rotations or substantial crops.

Practical advice for a cleaner result

Always keep a copy of your source files. Compare the new image at 100% zoom, test it in the application where it will be used, and make one change at a time when a result looks unexpected. Browser memory limits depend on device and image dimensions.

duplicate photo finder FAQ

Will this delete my original photos?+

No. The tool only analyzes the local files you select.

Can it find differently compressed photos?+

Yes, visual hashing may identify likely matches despite different bytes.

What makes exact and similar groups different?+

Exact grouping uses file bytes; similar grouping uses a perceptual signature threshold.
