WHAT MAC EXPERTS SAY “I’ve been an active user of MacPaw’s Gemini software since its inception, and Gemini 2’s release today has made me fall in love with it all over again. In just the initial scan, Gemini 2 found more files and more places where I could intelligently clear and save space on my Mac.” 
- 9to5mac “If you want to clean up your Mac, but are trepidatious about digging around in your files and accidentally deleting something important, Gemini 2 has a lot to offer and makes the whole process very simple.” - 
iMore “With Gemini 2 there’s little reason to fear duplicates. It has a polished, intuitive user interface and the brains to differentiate copies from originals by testing them against nearly a dozen different parameters. It’s also much faster, especially compared to digging through thousands of files and folders the old-fashioned way.” - 
MacWorld SUBSCRIPTION AND PRICING Some features are only partially available for non-paying users and can be unlocked with a Yearly Access plan.

  • Duplicate Nightmare

    So, I lost a hard drive at one point and the recovery process ended up duplicating many photos and videos. While space is cheap, it made staying organized very challening. This product was easy to use and accurately identified duplicates. You can accept the deletion proposal, or adjust it manually. In my case, it was still work, but did help to end my duplicate nightmare. Highly recommend.
  • Doesn't work as advertised.

    The fact is, it just doesn't find all the duplicates. I can run this, delete all the duplicates, then run it again and it will find more duplicates. I pop over to my photo library and there are still hundreds of duplicates. If this worked, it wouldn't find duplicates if I rerun a scan.
  • terrible directions and assistance

    This program does what it should without too much hassle. My only issue is that I feel the yearly subscription cost is slightly out of line with the value this app provides. To me, this software is worth about $10/yr vs the $20 charged. 🤑
  • Tried 6 different Apps, this was by far the easiest

    I purchased a 5TB drive and consolidated all of my photos from 4 different external drives. I also downloaded all my photos from the cloud. After consolidating everything I found that I had as many 5 copies of a particular photo. I eperimented with 6 different apps to see which was the fastest at eliminating duplicates and found Gemini 2 to be the fastest if you use the Smart Cleanup. If you want to look at each photo Gemini 2 was very tedious.
  • Extremely misleading on how to cancel after trial.

    Extremely difficult to cancel after the free trial. This app may work for some people but it did not work for what I needed, and now I will have to pay for it if I can't figure out how to cancel it, it needs to be more clear.
  • I purchased this in a package a few years ago and now have to pzy again!
