What are Duplicate Files?
Duplicate files are files with absolutely identical content. Duplicates can have different names but they have the same extension, size and data. In the Duplicates Files section, you can find and remove useless copies of any file type (music, movies, documents, pictures, archives and so on.)
What are Same Name Files?
In the Same Name Files section, you can preview files that have identical names. These files can have different data, but you duplicated their names. This fact may cause inconvenience when you are searching for your files. So rename your files or find duplicates with even the same name and then remove one of them.
What are Photo Series?
In the Photo Series section, you will see a group of pictures taken at the same date and time with an interval of 60 seconds. Cleaner-App uses photo data, taking into account the camera used, date, time of the picture and so on. Images may look similar or different. Thus, you can view each photo and select the one you want to delete.
How much space can I free up with Cleaner-App?
Cleaner-App is a Mac cleanup utility that helps you get more storage space. You can free up as much space as your duplicates, downloads and unneeded bulkiest files occupy.
