DupShelf

Find duplicate photos on an SD card

Camera SD cards and phone SD storage often accumulate burst duplicates and re-imported sets. Copy or mount the card, then scan the folder in DupShelf.

Typical SD card duplicate sources

  • Burst mode saving near-identical shots (exact mode only groups byte-identical files)
  • Importing the same card twice into different folders
  • RAW + JPEG pairs only match if bytes are identical

Scan tip

For speed, copy the card to an internal SSD folder first, then scan. USB card readers vary in speed; hashing thousands of files is faster from SSD.

Questions

Can DupShelf write back to the SD card?
If Chrome grants read/write access to that folder on your system, yes. Some readers mount read-only; then export CSV and clean manually.
