Duplicate Media Remover 4.4.1
One of such apps is Duplicate Media Remover. It automatically scans your device to find duplicate videos, audio files or pictures. It lets remove those unnecessary files that take up space on your phone but you don't really need them.
Intuitive UI that could use some more work
The app doesn't come with a tutorial or a presentation of all the features that you could find inside the app. It opens with the changelog and some tips that people might use.
It doesn't have material design or a side menu for accessing features fast. It only has a menu on the top of the screen but it lacks settings that you might do to the app and its interface. The app comes in multiple languages making it available to people from all over the world.
Find duplicate files on your device
The app doesn't take long to scan your phone and retrieve duplicate files. It displays the total number of files that will be analyzed and compared. There are tabs on the top of the screen, making it easier to access sections inside the app.
It also has stats, showing users the number of scans performed inside the app, the average scan time and the removed audio, video and images. All duplicate files are displayed in three categories, audio, images and videos. The app displays the size of each file and it's location.
More features
You have the option to remove all duplicates and only keep originals on your phone. There's also the option to schedule scans, simply pick the day of the week and hour in order to allow the app to automatically remove duplicate files from your phone.
It also lets you change the ways files are arranged, switch from grid to list view at any time. It comes with the option of sharing the app, but other than that it doesn't have that many features and tools.
The app could surely use a feature that would scan newly added photos to your gallery and inform you if they're duplicates. Moreover, it needs a more intuitive and stylish UI, together with the option of scanning personal files like documents.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
The interface is a bit simplistic, it doesn't come with material design and it lacks a side menu with quick access to features. |
Function8
It does its job and it doesn't take long to scan files on your device and display duplicates that you can later remove. |
Security9
It only needs access to areas of your phone that are connected to its features, so you don't need to worry about privacy issues. |
Battery3
Consumption is really high, keep your phone plugged in when using this app as it can drain your resources. |
Price9
It comes with annoying banner ads, but doesn't have any option of removing them with an upgrade. |
Compatibility8
It should work on devices running Android version 2.3 or later, making the app available to many users. |
It's a nice app but it needs some more features and a nicer UI.
