Description

From the listing uploaded by “apps”.

The application removes all duplicate media (audio, images and videos) files present in your internal (phone memory) and external storage (SD card). 1. Only folders (both internal memory and SD Card) that have been selected for scans are searched for duplicates. No files are deleted from any of deselected folders. 2. Each individual file that has duplicates can be marked for deletion including the original file. Verify that the selected files are the ones you definitely want to remove because they cannot be retrieved once deleted. 3. Scans can be scheduled on a weekly basis, allowing one scan per day. 4. The stats of the last run scan can be shared with your friends and family. 5. The cumulative stats across all scans are maintained for your reference. 6. Additionally, the application performs routine searches for duplicates. This improves the speed of subsequent scans and you're also notified if any duplicates are found.

Duplicate Media Remover APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Duplicate Media Remover APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is dceaf87049c40a45ba130d7b42908c09.
