← Photography Keepers · Mac app
Too many shots of the same moment? Keep the best, lose the rest.
Keepers surfaces the near-duplicate photo sets hiding in your Mac’s Photos library and
helps you triage them in seconds, safely, and nothing gets deleted by accident.
Screenshot, coming soon
Not iPhone Burst mode. Keepers groups the separate photos you took seconds apart
of one situation: three tries at a group photo, five frames of the kids by the pond, a few angles of the same view.
What it does
Groups near-duplicates automatically
Scans your library and clusters the shots taken seconds apart. Tune the time gap, minimum set size, and how far back to look.
Compare side by side
See every frame of a set at full size in one grid, spot the sharp one, the one where nobody blinked, the best composition.
One-tap triage
Keep the best and reject the rest, or auto-reject everything that isn’t a favorite. Each action shows how much space you’d reclaim.
Nothing deleted by accident
Triage is non-destructive, choices are tagged into albums. “Empty Rejected” moves them to Recently Deleted, always confirmed.
Undo anything
Undo a rejection from the confirmation toast or flip it back in the side-by-side view. Every action is reversible.
Mark your favorites
Starring a keeper sets the real Photos favorite flag and files it into your keepers album, in your actual library, not just the app.
Private by design
Everything runs on your Mac, against your own library. No accounts, no tracking, nothing ever leaves your device.
Fast and native
Built in SwiftUI for macOS. Scanning runs off the main thread, so the interface stays smooth on libraries with thousands of photos.

Perfect for
Anyone who takes several photos of the same scene to get it right, travel and landscape
shooters, group-photo retries, pet and kid photography, and anyone reclaiming Mac or iCloud storage from
near-duplicates.
Keep the best of every moment.
