Gemini 2 is a worthwhile upgrade for anyone who values their storage space, and might be going through a computer spring cleaning. All in all, I cleaned nearly 2 GB out of my iTunes library alone. Gemini found those duplicate files, even when their names and dates were completely different, and let me get rid of them without hassle. I frequently download remixes of songs, or variants of the same songs, and sometimes duplicates of them sneak into my iTunes library without me knowing.
#GEMINI 2 THE DUPLICATE FINDER REVIEW UPDATE#
The latest update today is also killer in dealing with your iTunes library. I pointed it to my Photos library and it found 35 photos from a photo shoot that were all nearly identical, same scene and day, and I was able to quickly go through and delete nearly all of them. In my testing, Gemini 2 really did an amazing job here. Gemini 2 helps you find those files so you can quickly sort and delete any unnecessary ones. At the end of the day not all the photos would be exactly the same, but some could be similar enough that it would be okay to delete them. For example, imagine you went out on a photo shoot and took a few hundred photos. This includes files that are not 100% the same, but similar enough that a difference between them might not be recognizable. With Gemini 2, it not only hunts for duplicate files, but also similar files. I’ve been an active user of MacPaw’s Gemini software since its inception, and Gemini 2’s release today has made me fall in love with it all over again. In just the initial scan, Gemini 2 found more files and more places where I could intelligently clear and save space on my Mac.Īs a long time fan of Gemini, I was delighted to see the vast improvements Gemini 2 brought into the already great duplicate finding experience. I’ve spent my fair share cleaning and sorting my library, but it always seems like an album sneaks in with duplicate photos. One of the most frustrating parts about keeping a large photo collection (75,000 and growing), is that I often end up with duplicates over years of maintenance.
