User-controlled comparison
Similar-looking shots can differ in expression, framing, sharpness, or meaning. Swoof puts them next to each other without deciding that context for you.

The comparison slider keeps both candidates in one visual surface. Review any challenger in the group, keep both when that is the honest choice, or place a confirmed photo in Swoof Trash.
Clear boundaries
Visual groups can contain alternate moments, crops, or burst frames rather than byte-for-byte copies.
Sharpness can inform product grouping, but Swoof does not claim to know which memory matters most.
Apple Photos owns exact-duplicate detection and merge behavior; Swoof's comparison workflow is distinct.
Decision flow
Swoof presents the current anchor and a photo to compare.
Use the split view, thumbnail strip, keep-both path, or a confirmed trash decision.
Photos chosen for removal still follow the separate Swoof Trash confirmation path.
Good to know
No. Swoof groups visually similar photos and burst-series members for review. Apple's exact-duplicate detection and merge behavior are separate.
No. You compare the images and decide which photos to keep or place in Swoof Trash.
No completeness guarantee is made. Results depend on available on-device representations and the selected similarity strictness.
