PhotoSweeper is perfect for you if:

• You often take a series of shots to get the perfect image and want to remove the extras.
• You edit photos in apps like Photoshop or Capture One and create multiple versions or backups.
• You have photos spread across folders, external drives, and libraries like Apple Photos, Lightroom Classic, or Capture One.
• Your photo library feels messy, disorganized, or too full, and you want to reclaim space by removing unnecessary files.

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.

• 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.
