Similar Picture Finder

When taking photos using a digital device, most people take several shots, then choose the one they like best. This is how you can end up with the multiple images that share the same contents, and these pictures remain on their memory card, then on the hard drive, taking up space.
Similar Picture Finder can help you identify them so you can remove them, if you need the space.

Customize the search parameters

You need to start by selecting the source image, the one that is considered the reference one. You can preview it in the dedicated panel, as well as analyze its corresponding EXIF information.
Then, adjust the permitted pixel difference and the resample dimensions. The final step is to modify the tolerance levels for the alpha, red, green, and blue values.
You need to keep in mind that higher dimension values increase processing time, but generate stricter results, whereas the higher the tolerance levels, the more relaxed the results are.

More search criteria supported

Similar Picture Finder offers you the possibility to look for graphic files that only share certain formats. You can also search only for images whose file size or picture dimensions are smaller than the ones of the reference pic.

Explore and analyze the results

After selecting the reference image, you also need to choose the folder that should be scanned for similar photos.
Once the analysis is complete, the application shows the pictures that might have different resolutions, yet that contain the same or very similar contents.
You can browse all the detected pics, preview them, and get various info about them, such as resolution, file size or creation date.
For those that also include EXIF data, you can analyze the author name, copyright or shooting date and time.

Conclusion

All in all, Similar Picture Finder can help you quickly and effortlessly locate the images that resemble a chosen graphic file.
