Duplicate & similar photo finder
Clean Kit finds exact duplicates and the near-identical shots the iPhone Photos app misses, like bursts and several takes of the same moment. Each group highlights the best photo by sharpness, resolution, exposure and face quality, so you only need to confirm.

Exact duplicates and the ones iOS misses
Since iOS 16, the Photos app has a Duplicates album. It’s useful, but it only finds copies of the same image. Most wasted space comes from similar photos: the burst you fired at a moving pet, or the six versions of a group photo where someone blinked.
Clean Kit uses Apple’s on-device Vision framework to group both:
- Exact duplicates: the same image saved more than once, including copies at a different size or format
- Near-duplicates: bursts, retakes and shots taken seconds apart
- Blurry photos: out-of-focus shots that sit next to a good version of the same moment
Keep the best shot automatically
In every group, Clean Kit compares sharpness, resolution, exposure and face quality and marks the best photo to keep. Review the group side by side, change the pick if you prefer another, and delete the rest.
Groups are sorted by potential savings, so the biggest wins come first. The Largest Duplicates list shows exactly how much each group frees.
Private by design
Comparing photos needs full access to your library, so where the comparison happens matters. Clean Kit runs every check on your iPhone or iPad. Nothing is uploaded, there’s no account, and the App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the iPhone Duplicates album?
The Duplicates album in Photos finds copies of the same image. Clean Kit also groups similar photos, such as bursts or five takes of a group shot, which usually take far more space.
How does Clean Kit choose the best photo?
It compares sharpness, resolution, exposure and face quality in each group and marks the best shot to keep. You can change the choice before deleting.
Does it find blurry photos too?
Yes. Clean Kit detects blurry photos with on-device AI and lists them separately, and Smart Clean can include them in a one-tap cleanup.
