SparePix: Duplicate Photos

SparePix is a duplicate photo remover, finder and cleaner for your gallery. It finds similar photos, burst photos, exact duplicates and similar screenshots, so you can free up storage without guessing what is safe to delete.

SparePix scans the camera roll on this phone. It groups near-duplicates and bursts, finds exact duplicate photos, and groups near-duplicate screenshots. Nothing is removed during the scan.

Similar photos and burst photos

Near-duplicates, burst photos and re-saved copies often sit side by side in your gallery. SparePix puts them into one group, so you review a single card instead of scrolling past every frame. A copy that was re-saved or lightly edited can join its group too.

Exact duplicate photos

A file saved twice is an exact duplicate. SparePix finds these by their content and lists them in their own groups, so you can see them at a glance and decide what to keep.

Similar screenshots

The same chat, map, ticket or receipt often gets screenshotted more than once. SparePix groups these near-duplicate screenshots, so you can keep one and clear the rest. A screenshot that matches no other stays out of the groups.

Swipe through photos

Prefer one photo at a time? The swipe deck shows your photos one by one. Swipe left to mark a photo for Trash, swipe right to keep it, and undo the last choice if you change your mind.

You decide

- SparePix suggests which copy to keep, based on resolution, file size and sharpness. You can keep a different one.
- If every copy in a similar or duplicate group is marked, nothing in that group is removed until you keep one.
- Nothing is moved until you confirm. The confirmation shows how many photos and how much space they take.
- On Android 11 and newer, deleted photos go to Trash and stay there for 30 days, so you can restore them. On older versions of Android, deletes are permanent.

Privacy

Everything runs on this phone. SparePix does not upload your photos, needs no account, shows no ads and collects no data.

If you allow access to only some photos, SparePix scans only those.

Free and one-time unlock

Scanning and reviewing are always free, and so are a limited number of deletes. A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited deletes for photos and screenshots.

Review the groups at your own pace, keep the photos you want, and free up space on this phone one group at a time.
