User Reviews for Remo Duplicate Photos Remover

Seems pretty useful and accurate

I haven’t had much time to really take this app out for a spin but, from the brief period of time I did, however, test it out, it actually seems quite useful and honestly, probably one of the most sensible apps I have on my iPhone amongst the umpteen hundreds of worthless, nonsensical, and disappointing other apps that most have never once been used. Not to mention, of the apps that I do use or have used more than once, the actual use is pitiful, within allowable functionality without having to commit to a flipping monthly subscription just to actually do anything worthwhile or justifiably important for the price. Unlike those apps, this one actually wasn’t disappointing or only performed half the actual task (e.g. scan and locate all dups, present them to you, and then whoa wait... in order to actually delete the dups the app found, guess what?? Yup! Subscription needed!). Not that I’m above paying for an app, which is how things used to be—pay for the app one time fee, get full access-period! No. That’s unheard of now because greed has once again found a way again and instead of paying for the app once, you get to pay every month to keep using it so it’s like buying the same app every month. Thanks to the app developer of this app for making it simple and free for making an app that takes care of this task that would never get done otherwise. Thank you!

On big photo libraries, a long pause before finishing scan

…makes you think the app doesn’t work. I originally reported that it simply didn’t work because my observation was that it got to a point in the scan where there was no activity for several minutes, and I didn’t think waiting would make a difference. I tried it again after developer contacted me asking for further details. When it had scanned about 90% it stopped like before (not on a particular number, which seems likely be memory related, rather than quantity) and, instead of quitting after a couple of minutes like before, I just let the device sit there. Sometime between five and ten minutes later the scan resumed and completed. Once scanned the duplicates were identified correctly and I could successfully delete what I wanted. This otherwise seems like a great app. Especially for free! Five stars if developer can fix the pause because I’m sure most people would not wait that long, and quit the app thinking it was broken, like I did the first couple of times.I also noted that the app does not continue scanning if you switch to another app during the scan, as it says you can do, even though I have background app refresh set to ON.

Doesn’t work

I love that this app is free and doesn’t collect data. It didn’t work though. I tried it on two different devices and it scanned but could only detect exact duplicates. I don’t think it detected all my exact duplicates either. Of approximately 30k photos, I’m sure more than 10 duplicates. It detected 0 similar images. That was the feature I was most interested in using. To get the best pictures, I hit the shutter button on the phone several times over- like a burst shot. This yields best results for kids and cats alike, but leads to time consuming removal. It also didn’t scan in the background, but I appreciated the fact that it would only pause and continue when it was pulled back up and not start over. Scanning didn’t take any longer than expected with the amount of pics I have, but it made both devices very hot, so I was glad to be able to pause. For the record, the devices were an iPhone 13 pro max and an old iPhone 7. I’m also impressed that it even was available for the old phone. I will keep the app for a while and hopefully there will be updates to fix the similar. Thank you

Good, but could be better

I somehow have accumulated tens of thousands of duplicates on my phone. While the app the great at finding them (45,000+) it does not allow you to delete them all at once. Based on another user review it appear s you can only delete 1000 at a time...which you have to do manually one set at a time because you can’t use the select all feature. I know I’m probably an extreme case as most people won’t have that many duplicates, but still...If you could delete as many as you needed this app would be much much better. Also, I’m not sure how reliable the file size numbers are as they shift when you select certain files within a set. Sometimes the file that the app decides is the “original” is the largest file size, other times it’s a smaller one. Not sure why it would select an image with a smaller file size as a keeper.

Great Tool!

This tool is fantastic and the best thing I’ve found to help clean up my massive library better than any other ‘find dupes’ program I’ve tried. A couple of points thought.First and most important, it does take time to scan your files. You’re supposed to be able to minimize, but that didn’t work on my iPad. I started mine before going to bed and left it on and running. It finished overnight. I had about 6k photos.Second, this point is for the dev team. I’d like to get some file details when going in to look closer at an individual picture in the compare screen after scanning. Being able to see a date is nice, but not always the only thing I need. As some background, I have a design business and often have an original jpeg graphic and a secondary png graphic that I’ve removed the background on so that it is transparent and can be put on shirts and the like. It would be helpful to see the file type. I figured out that the oldest files were on the left, but that would make it easier.

Failed to find duplicates

I was trying to duplicate iPhone 7 Live Photos as still photos so I could delete the live version and reclaim space. Even though I selected Duplicate as Still Photo the iphone created duplicates of the Live Photos instead. I downloaded this app to remove the duplicate Live Photos so I could get back to where I started from. Out of at least 700 duplicate Live Photos the app only found 8 duplicates. Which means I have to select about 692 duplicates manually. The photos are shown together in the Live Album so you can’t even select by sliding your finger across lines of photos automatically selecting everything. You have to pick every other photo to delete. In fairness, after creating the duplicate Live photo images, the amount of storage space used on the iPhone didn’t change. This could mean they only created a pointer to the original Live photo, and displayed it twice. In that case, REMO would not find a duplicate because the iPhone may have only simulated a second copy.

Very good

This app works well. Out of my iPad collection of over 12,000 photos , it found over two thousand duplicates, or similars. And truth to tell , the only reason I could see for any difference in Most of the similars was the file size . The app pretty much selects the lower size copy , but not always . So, comparing file sizes is rather tedious, but worth the extra time. Also, I take screenshots of a web page , but save them as photos . The app pretty much lumps them all as similars , but I just skip past them . Most of the screenshots I’m talking about I’ll delete over time , anyway . All in all , a very good app. The version for Windows and Mac computers you have to pay for , but it’s a reasonable price . And you do have to buy both , if you have both windows and Mac computers. Now that my collection on my iPhone and iPad are cleaned up , I’ll move on to doing the same for my windows photos . ( over 100 gigs ) . Hope it does as well there !

WoWzzers!!!

I do not ever I mean EVER write reviews. However I feel this is totally an exception! This is absolutely the best app out there for removing duplicates of photos! I’ve searched and searched. Even paid for some. Nothing compares to this! Zero pop up ads! Mine takes time but I have started with nearly 66,000 photos. My computer uploaded some photos 12 times! The ONLY negative for me is that I can do the select all - and hit the delete and say yes to deleting them all, but it doesn’t. I figured out it can only handle deleting 1000 at a time. I can’t imagine anyone else has the same problem I had (nearly 19k of doubles!). So for me I have to manually click each one and then rescan after each 1000 deleted. I would have totally paid for this (2.99 to 3.99). I’m not into subscriptions because really how many times would you need to go through and delete doubles after the initial run? Maybe do it yearly? Anyways by far the BEST app I’ve ever used!

Great App from a Great Developer

The app itself is wonderful, and works perfectly. It helped me sort out a long standing mess amid my photos, and did it quickly and in a way that makes sense. The most amazing thing though, is that this developer must be someone with a passion for the work. There is absolutely nothing wrong with making money as an app developer, and in fact, it's expected. But, here's a case where this app could have been written chock full of ads, with in-app-purchases, or as another of the PITA subscription model apps. I'd encourage the creator to release a donation version. I'm (now) going to see if the Dev has an email address and PayPal account so I can send off a tip, cup of coffee, whatever. That's how impressive and helpful this app has been for me. 👍👍

Works great

Ok I was skeptical about this app but I thought I would give it a try. It works fantastic !!! For real! It scans your phone and IPad for both exact matching duplicate photos and of similar matching photos in 2 separate files. So you can go through the exact match and select them all or hand select the duplicates you want to delete. It will NOT let you delete all of the photos only the duplicates, so it keeps the master. Then you can go to similar and review those. This is perfect if you take lots of screen shots, do photo share and make duplicates to post to social media. I would highly recommend this app. It will save you hours of trying to review and delete duplicate photos. And it’s free! Win win!
