Duplicate File Cleaner - Find and Delete Your Duplicates App Reviews

Seems stable on Yosemite. Worked very well in the new Photos library; also scanned my entire home folder, and it went quickly. Tip: scan individual folders to make the process more manageable. More affordable than alternatives with same functions. Reminders to write a review are annoying, but it’s worth it.

I saved almost 5GB on my pictures in seconds. Wow!

I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro and transferred the contents of 2 old hard drives. I literally had THOUSANDS of duplicated pics. It was rediculous. I had no idea how I could possibly sift through them all….so I didn’t. I took a deep breath and pressed delete after this magical app cleaned through all of my files.

In about 2 minutes it found over 7GB of duplicate photos! It was great to free up that much space!

What a software. Very concise. very accurate, easy to use and very quick. It does what it says and the free part is an extra. I plan to pay something soon. Thanks guys for a great ware. I appreciate the help with it.

This is an easy to use and relatively safe way to remove duplicate files. It work fastest by searching a few folders at a time and sends duplicates to trash where they then can be sent to a back-up just in case youre afraid to lose those precious five identical photos of your mother-in-law. A very clean and intuitive interface plus a great price puts this at the head of the class.

Trying to find something that truley cleans up duplicates in my Apple Photos library, not something that just removes the master files. Sure this found dupilcates (once I manually added the library since the built-in button didn’t work properly) and it will remove the files in the library but the thumbnails are still there and show up in the library. I could care less about the disk space, looking for something that literally cleans up what I’m seeing in the albums, etc.

This is a beautifully designed app that is, unfortunately, hampered by some serious usability issues: 1. If you click on “Display Result” during a scan, it stops the scan. Since scans are slow, it would be nice to be able to work on interim results while the scan is running. 2. If you try to go back to the scan screen while viewing results, it resets the scan and you have to start over (and scans are slow if you have a lot of files). 3. You can’t delete a few files at a time as you work your way down the list…once you hit the delete button the scan is reset and you have to start over. 4. Once you go the the results screen, any folders you selected for the scan are cleared when you go back to the scan screen. The application also froze up on me during my first use while I was selected files to delete, requiring me to force quit the app and relaunch it (which of course reset my scan results). That drops my rating down from 2 1/2 stars to 1.

Tried this software and did nothing as it was expected. I had to go throgh my files and clear out the duplicates overtime.

I loved this app!!!! I am technology challenged and even I could remove all my duplicates with this app. I highly recommend it. This app saved me more tha 3GB of space.

Does what it says it will. It’s simple and easy to work with.

very useful app it cleared much space on my macbook. i recommend it.

Really! It scans quickly, finds duplicates properly, convenient and easy to use modern UI, moves files to Trash by default (you can change it in settings, but it’s a good approach to move everything in Trash by default, appreciate it). Highly recommend!

I would give this app 6 Starts if possible. I have been sorting over 30,000 pictures and movie files after a dataloss for months now. I had a very large external drive crap out and it just so happend to be at a time when I had time machine not work and my double redundant backup process not work. ARGH…in a nutshell I had a file recovery system scan for 3 days and was able to revover all the media however no file names or metadata was saved. I used lightroom and finder to manually sort for days and exported full versions with limited metadata for all, but ended up creating a mess of other duplicates with new numbering orders blah blah blah…Tried to use many other file dupe finders with no luck, the programs always saw everything as different files when it was clear some .MOV files were the exact same size down to the 1/10 of a MB. This program freed up 15 GB of dupes in 5 min and gave me immediate confidence to hit DELETE!! Huge wieght off my chest. Thanks DEV Team..whoever you are.

This app is an untrained summer intern’s worst nightmare. Intuiative and sleek, it’s made consolidating several mismatched file structures as simple as a few clicks.
