PhotoSweeper overview
PhotoSweeper is a lightning-fast, highly accurate, and remarkably efficient tool for cleaning up similar or duplicate photos, even in massive photo libraries. It works with Apple Photos, Lightroom Classic, Capture One, and images stored anywhere on your Mac or external drives.
Key Features
- Deep Integration with Popular Photo Libraries - Works seamlessly with Apple Photos, Lightroom Classic, and Capture One. You can also scan any folder or external drive, with no need to move or reorganize your files beforehand.
- Fast and Accurate Comparison Engine - Under the hood is a lightning-fast engine that detects both exact duplicates and visually similar images. It goes beyond filenames by analyzing content, composition, and capture time. You can fine-tune the matching level to catch everything from identical copies to burst shots and edits.
- Flexible, User-Friendly Workflow - Clean up your library with ease. Similar photos are grouped side by side for quick visual comparison. Use Auto Mark to automatically select the best image in each group, or choose manually. Lock important photos, view EXIF data, preview with Quick Look, and apply customizable marking rules.
- AI-Powered Photo Scoring - Evaluates the visual quality of photos using AI and displays a visual badge on each image. Use the “Quality Score” auto mark rule to automatically keep the best shots.
- Smart Cleanup with Safety in Mind - You're always in control. Review all marked photos before deleting. Nothing is permanently erased. Photos go to the system Trash, are marked “Rejected” in Lightroom, or moved to a special album in Photos so you can recover them later if needed.
- Optimized for Performance / Handles Large Libraries - Whether you have thousands or hundreds of thousands of photos, PhotoSweeper runs fast and smooth. It's optimized for macOS and runs natively on Apple Silicon for top performance on your Mac.
Declutter your photo library, free up disk space, and enjoy your best memories without the noise. With PhotoSweeper, cleaning up your Mac has never been so smart and satisfying.

Does anyone know how I can use Photosweeper on my shared albums? I have about 80 shared albums. I was successful at using Photosweeper on my PhotoLibary. I just can't figure out how to get my Shared Albums scanned for dupes. Thank you for any direction someone can offer.

I have used over a dozen organizational apps over the years, but for photos NOTHING compares to PhotoSweeper - insanely fast, super focused on what matters with a clean design and very responsive updates. Photographers of all kinds along with a large or small collection should try this app. They won't be disappointed...

I want to share impressions from using PhotoSweeer X. Previously say that I have tried about 10 similar programs searchers photo duplicates (it is pictured). The general impression from PhotoSweeer X - very comfortable (probably the best among all similar), fast and intuitive application, with sufficiently high-quality search engine duplicate photo and comparing the series. But, it is not strange, this app is not clear (another definition) photos. At the same time applications such as: Snapselect (poor functional), Similar Imige Detector (many unnecessary comparisons photo and not too convenient control), DupHunter (this app has a very slow engine and a lot of incorrect comparison of pairs and series) - are a bunch of missed PhotoSweeer X duplicate photo! This occurs when all options Search options relevance. I do not want to say that PhotoSweeer X - is not a quality search. I want to draw the attention of developers to refine the search algorithm to PhotoSweeer X duplicates found explicit photos. Let the developers will review the work of these applications me. I called the most effective (in my opinion) the number of searchers photo duplicate applications. (I apologize for my English -one is not my native language).
