Check a sample collection

  2. Apply a small set of labels and inspect how the information can be reused outside the application.
  3. Compare duplicate suggestions and review intentional edited versions before marking any removals.
  4. Complete the next task, such as exporting resized copies or preparing a slideshow, and count the steps that matter to you.

Keep an independent copy before changing names, metadata or retained files. Confirm which changes remain in the application database and which are written to images or sidecars. These comparisons describe documented workflows; no shared performance or recognition-accuracy benchmark was run.
