I think a really valuable feature in a photo library app would be something that can identify sets of very similar or identical photos and decide which one is the "best" and offer to discard the rest.

I must be wasting so much storage on the 4 photos I took in a row of the family pose, or derivatives that got shared on whatsapp and then stored back to my gallery, and so on, and I know I'm not the only one.







Do either of these offer suggestions on which of the duplicates to keep? That to me is the killer feature - it can be paralyzing trying to assess which one is "best" and I think a well-trained AI could do a good job of it.

Yeah. Lots of “culling” software out there but agree it would be a good feature for standard photo organisation apps

Looks like imagen offers unlimited culling for $144/yr or $18/mo

Aftershoot has culling plan $120/yr billed annually

Not sure how they compare in quality
