I have 12,000 photos that I’m finally getting to organizing. But the Duplicate Utility in Photos is not picking up all duplicates. It is not showing in the Utility bar and I know there are duplicates.
Is there a good app to download to find and delete duplicates (or very similar) photos?
Thanks!

The best duplicates finder is probably within the trusted 3rd party app PowerPhotos ($35.) It gives lots of options for filtering duplicates--like comparing filename, date, resolution, etc. It also does lots more than find duplicates!
Another one that seems to work well is PhotoSweeper ($15) which is cheaper but does less.
Beware of apps that claim to find duplicate files on your Mac-- some can wreak havoc on a Photos Library. We've seen here the suffering caused by such apps!

Thanks! I'll check those out. And I'm just looking for help with photos - I'll stay away from the apps looking for duplicate files.
I appreciate the help!
