good

It failed to find 3 duplicate files as a test that I set up. It apparently does not use a content-based file comparison and has no way to enable such a thing.

clicking on top bar icon crashes it. Otherwise it works perfectly

Takes forever to do the first scan. Never finished. When I click stop, the app freezes.

Only “problem” is the name. When I want to recommend it to others they think I mean Google AI Gemini. MacPaw Gemini is my go to utility when cleaning up duplicate storage on my Synology and UGREEN NAS devices.

This is great, brillant, and easier than easliy deleted.

Ottima e pratica soluzione per eliminare i files duplicati

Gemini makes it much easier to review images for duplicates, which tend to accumulate over time. As an amateur photographer, I have a large library of photographs, and I saved several hundred megabytes and several hours of time using Gemini.

Love the app but it crashes all the time. on a M1 macbook and my new M4 macbook

from 50k photos it detected 20 duplicates lol not the tool i’ll continue to use neither recommend to anyone

takes too long and too onerous to sort through the dupes. Asks repeatedly about erasing duplicate and similar photos even if I check the “don’t ask again” box.

Not good - started it twice, eating up all memory, causing system crash.

crashes while clicking the icon on the top bar on Mac OS

I was working on a project consolidated my FLAC library from three sources into one. Needless to say, there were DUPLICATES! Gemini saved me a ton of time locating and eliminating those duplicates quickly!

Seems to really dominate memory usage to the point that OSX pauses the app, opens a dialogue and asks me which other apps I want to force quit. After force quitting a few, Gemini just eats all available memory till I eventually had to close it. Was comparing about 30GB of files and it used 49GB of RAM. Not a very good experience so far…

After merging two music libraries, Apple Music found over 2,000 duplicates. Gemini: zero!

it is not good at finding duplicates that may have different names but same information inside.

I really like your app. It likes save my digital life.

This is good for very rudimentary dupe management. However, it gives you almost no control over common scenarios like if the “Date Modified” timestamp of a file is different from a file that has the exact same checksum. In this regard, I suppose its better for the app to err on the side of safety, but its frustrating that theres no way to prioritize file checksums over other filesystem level metadata that doesnt actually affect the contents of the file itself. Gemini missed about 2 TB worth of exact duplicates in my archives, simply because the “Date Modified” metadata was different.

dose not work on icloud
