How does AiCleanerPro find duplicates in Google Photos?

AiCleanerPro uses perceptual hashing (pHash) to analyze thumbnails from your Google Photos library. It compares visual fingerprints to find duplicate and near-duplicate photos, even if they have different file names or were edited slightly.

Does AiCleanerPro access my full-resolution photos?

No. AiCleanerPro only analyzes thumbnails from Google Photos and Drive. Your full-resolution photos are never downloaded or accessed, ensuring maximum privacy and faster scanning.

Can it find duplicates between Google Photos and Google Drive?

Yes. AiCleanerPro performs cross-cloud deduplication, finding duplicate photos that exist in both Google Photos and Google Drive, helping you eliminate redundant copies and free up Google One storage.

Is AiCleanerPro free to use?

AiCleanerPro is free for early adopters who join the waitlist. Sign up now to get free access when we launch.

Can AiCleanerPro find blurry photos in Google Photos?

Yes. AiCleanerPro uses AI-powered blur detection to identify out-of-focus, motion-blurred, and low-quality photos in your Google Photos library. You can review and delete them in bulk to reclaim storage.

Does it find similar photos, not just exact duplicates?

Yes. Using perceptual hashing, AiCleanerPro finds near-duplicate and visually similar photos — even if they differ in resolution, compression, crop, or filename. It groups similar shots and helps you keep only the best version.

Can it detect duplicate videos in Google Drive?

Yes. AiCleanerPro detects duplicate videos across Google Photos and Google Drive, including videos that were re-encoded, compressed, or saved in different formats. It uses frame sampling combined with perceptual hashing for accurate video matching.

How much Google One storage can I save?

The average user has 20-30% duplicate content across Google Photos and Drive. Users typically save 2-8 GB of Google One storage, which can reduce or eliminate the need for a paid storage plan.

How AiCleanerPro Cloud Works

AiCleanerPro Cloud finds duplicate, blurry, and similar photos across your Google Photos and Google Drive. All analysis happens in your browser. We never download your full-resolution photos and never store your photo content on our servers.

What We Access

Thumbnail-only access — we read low-resolution thumbnails from the Google Photos and Drive APIs to compute perceptual hashes for duplicate detection.
Read-only OAuth scope — we request the minimum scopes needed to enumerate items and read thumbnails. We do not modify or download originals.
Browser-only processing — perceptual hashing and similarity scoring runs locally in your browser. No photo content leaves your device.

What We Store

We do not store your photos, thumbnails, or content metadata on our servers. We may store a minimal account record (email, OAuth refresh token, plan tier) to keep you signed in and process subscriptions. Deletion actions you confirm are sent directly to the Google API.

Analytics

We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (page views, feature usage). We do not track individuals across the web and do not sell data.

Your Rights

You can revoke our access at any time from your Google Account permissions page. You can request deletion of your account record by contacting us.
