How to find and delete similar photos
Most people take several shots of the same moment and never go back to pick one. Those lookalikes add up quickly.
How lookalikes are found
The app compares each photo's colors and overall structure to group shots that look alike, then marks the sharpest one in each set as the best. It all happens on your iPhone.
Clean up lookalikes
- Open the Similar folder after the scan.
- Go through each set — the best shot is marked and kept.
- Change the selection if you'd rather keep a different shot.
- Delete the rest.
FAQ
- Can Smart Clean delete them all at once?
- Yes. Smart Clean removes duplicates and lookalikes in one go and always keeps the best shot of each set. Review any folder first if you'd rather choose yourself.
