Duplicate Annihilator for Photos For Mac

Duplicate Annihilator for Photos is designed to help you identify duplicate images imported into your Apple Photos application without making you manually compare master and versions sets.

Right off the bat, Duplicate Annihilator for Photos makes you specify the Photos library you want to examine, and then allows you to start the scanning process. Within the app’s Preferences tab, you get to select the comparison method you wish to apply: magic, restrictive, or custom.

Duplicate Annihilator for Photos provides support for multiple algorithms that can detect duplicate photos. It can compare the SHA1 checksum, the creation date, the Exif creation date, the first 8 characters of the file name, the file size, or the image width or height.

Noteworthy is that Duplicate Annihilator for Photos will not delete any image from your Photos library. The clean up process takes place in the Photos application, but the procedure is significantly streamlined by the tags added to your images by Duplicate Annihilator for Photos.

The utility only detects duplicates, originals, thumbnails, faces, missing photos, or corrupt JPGs, and assigns relevant tags. Within the Duplicate Annihilator for Photos Preferences you get to customize the labels associated with each type of image.

Moreover, note that you do not have to process your entire Photos library: Duplicate Annihilator for Photos can scan only the selected images. If you compare different photos using the built-in image analyzer, you will also be able to see the checksum information for each file.

To conclude, Duplicate Annihilator for Photos can scan your Photos library by applying different analysis algorithms and tags the images that require your attention to make them easier to find.
