Purpose: Pixiple searches files for images similar in pixel and metadata content and presents sorted pairs for comparison.
Similarity signals: It uses pixel content and metadata such as dates, location, and camera to find related images.
Comparison tools: The app supports synchronized zooming and panning and a button to swap images when comparing quality differences.
Processing: Pixiple uses fast, multithreaded processing.
Portable app: It is distributed as a single file, requires no installation, and saves no settings.
Supported formats: It supports formats handled by Windows Imaging Component, including PNG, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, and BMP.
Similarity limits: It is less effective when images have substantial pixel changes such as cropping or changes to brightness, contrast, or saturation.
Metadata handling: Filename, size, date, and format are ignored when detecting similarity, and image paths are ignored by default.
Scan behavior: Pixiple does not cache previous results, so every new scan processes all images again.
System requirements: Pixiple requires Windows 7 or later and does not work on Windows XP.
Command line: The r5 release added a rudimentary command line interface.
File handling: The r3 release added drag and drop of files and folders to initiate a scan.
License: The repository includes an MIT license.
Maker: The GitHub profile identifies the maker as Ola Olsson and lists Malmö, Sweden.
