Exact duplicates
Exact duplicates are copies with the same image content. They are different from separate shots that merely look alike.
Similar photos on iPhone
Find similar photos. Compare each group. Choose what stays.
Several photos can capture the same moment without being exact duplicates. PicVore groups visually similar shots on your device so you can compare them together and decide which ones you still want.
