For most people, the biggest storage space invaders on the iPhone are photos and videos (and, if you’re like me, screenshots).

The problem is, not every photo or video is good. Duplicate and blurred photos are common (this is tips for taking less blurry photos) and most people don’t delete them immediately, leaving that task for some time in the future.

But scrolling through the thousands of photos and videos in a photo library is not a fun idea for most people, which is why the photo library keeps growing and growing until it gets out of hand. control, and people end up buying a new iPhone with more storage.

Gemini Photo by the Ukrainian software company MacPaw is the application that changes all that.

This app takes all the stress out of sifting your photos. You download it, run it, and it will go through all your photos, videos, and screenshots, looking for things like blurry photos, identical duplicates, and photos containing text.

Gemini Photos can also scan for good photos (including photos you’ve edited with your favorite photos, focus photos, and photos of people smiling with their eyes open) and bad photos (blurred photos and photos of people with their eyes closed) .

Another feature Gemini Photos has is the ability to search for similar but not identical photos. This is a premium feature ($4.99/month, $19.99/year, $34.99 unlimited access), but you get a 3-day free trial to test it out.

After the app has scanned your photo library, you can choose which photos and videos to keep and which to discard.

You are in complete control. That’s fine because it’s your data that you’re messing with.

I’ve been a Gemini Photos user for a few years and — no exaggeration — it’s cleaned tens of gigabytes of raw data and debris from my iPhone, which means I can keep taking photos without a hitch. not running out of space (or need to buy more – and expensive – iCloud storage).

Gemini Photo is also one of the growing applications. The ability to detect good and bad photos as well as remove similar-looking photos from different-looking pictures has improved quite a bit over the years.

Highly recommended!
