Only catches ~20% of duplicates and not enough filters
Gemini 2 is a huge disappointment. For $20 I expected a much better program. Rough estimate this program only catches about 20% of the duplicates in images, and worse in music.
This is how bad the software is - I scanned a folder with about 10GB of images in it that I knew had a lot of duplicates - the program found 1GB. I clicked the smart clean button, and went through the similar dupes list and deleted those as well. Then I and scanned the EXACT SAME FOLDER again, and found another 300MG of duplicates. What the what? I also scanned a folder with about 100 songs in it, and I knew there were two exact duplicates in there, and the program missed them entirely.
There’s also a “smart selection” feature that is flat out dumb. Instead of giving you the option up front of selecting to delete files that are older, or newer, or smaller, or larger, this “algorithm” supposedly picks up on the trends in your selection of files to delete, and asks you if you want to make this a rule. You can’t just set up a rule ahead of time, you have to wait for this suggestion window to pop up. Dumb.
I’m ticked I spent $20 on this junk. Look elsewhere.
