Hey everyone, Julia from MacPaw here. Meet the next generation duplicate file finder Gemini 2 by MacPaw. Gemini 2 - identifies duplicates on a Mac (folders, pictures, apps, tunes, docs, and videos) - spots similar files (in Photos and iTunes libraries) - tells copies from originals, based on 10+ parameters - remembers rules for files removal and applies them - safely deletes files - restores a previous scanning session Gemini 2 is a powerful app to work with duplicates and similar files, not to mention its sleek stellar interface and entertaining gamified approach. It's pure fun!

@ua_philka I want to give it a try and use trial, before make my decision to weather buy it or no. How long it would be on Sale?

@ua_philka What is the difference between the free and the paid version? I looked around on your site but wasn't able to locate any information/comparison between the two versions

@ua_philka I've already bought it :) Better than similar apps and $10 well worth it. Had no idea it's from CleanMyMac Developers. Enjoying the CleanMyMac for years now. Good Job, Thanks! :)

This app is super slick — and also very powerful! Be careful when going through your files that you don't hoover up (pun intended!) a bunch of files that you're keeping dupes of on purpose!

@chrismessina thank you for hunting Gemini 2.
David Carpe
is there a setting to place shortcuts to original files in place of dupes? (versus simply deleting them)
Volodymyr
@passingnotes Yes, Gemini 2 can replace duplicates with the hard-links. That option is available from Gemini 2 Settings

Gemini 1 already was the best app to find & eliminate duplicate files on your Mac. Can't wait to upgrade to the new and improved Gemini 2. These MacPaw types know their stuff. I trust the company that brings me Clean My Mac to Clean My Duplicates too.

Awesome update. Well done MacPaw.

I love the original Gemini. Got my parents on it a few weeks ago and they fell in love as well. Well worth the $10.

Just to let you know, I'm getting this message after downloading it: 'This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to keep Gemini2.dmg anyway? I usually don't get this message after downloading a dmg file.
Volodymyr
@jerrebm That rather looks like the regular warning from OS X that the *.dmg file downloaded from internet is potentially dangerous. If you've downloaded it from our web site or from trusted sources, that's absolutely safe to launch it.
Jerre Baumeister
@storyerr Alright, just good to know as it might scare some people. I've just tried it, great work! :)
Stepan Zinin
Awesome!

<3 MacPaw apps! Great release guys!

How well does it work on photos? That is what I really need. @ua_philka?
Volodymyr
@joshdance @ua_philka We've did our best to make the app compatible with Photos, so you're welcome to try it! Still the only thing, as we're not able to remove photos to Trash on our own, (Apple does not allow that) we'll create separate album, "Gemini Duplicates" for those, and you'll be able to review them once again before deleting.

@joshdance You can try a trial version of Gemini 2 which is available on the app's website. http://macpaw.com/gemini

According to their footer - they work in the same office I once did when I was PMM at a tiny failed startup. Small world! Many breaks taken on the top of the parking structure & on the walking path :P

@stttories What office do you mean?

It is indeed a great product for finding duplicates on Mac. If you have problems with it, other possible solutions are: https://www.tunesbro.com/best-du...
