“I know it’s in here.
Somewhere.”
A phone backup here. A family album there. Import from several folders into one library, organized by the dates and details available.
Start with one folder A calmer home for your photo collection
Never lose a
precious moment.
Years of photos. Too many folders. One place to bring them together.
Organize scattered photos and videos, verify what made it into your library, and review duplicate copies before deciding what to remove.
For Windows · No photo upload required to organize
More memories.
Less wondering where they went.

⌁ Your files, in ordinary folders✓ Evidence before cleanup♡ Room for the moments that matter
A familiar kind of photo problem
Not a lack of photos.
A lack of order.
FotoQuokka is for the collection that has grown across phones, computers, external drives and folders called “backup.”
“Can I finally clear
this old drive?”
Compare a folder with the whole library by size and file hash. See matched, missing and unresolved files. Import supported missing media without copying confirmed matches again.
Understand verification“The date is missing.
The memory isn’t.”
Group undated photos by location or original folder. Review them together, then add dates, places, events and custom fields to selected files.

A simple path through a big collection
Bring them in.
Check them.
Breathe easier.
Start small. Verify the result. Add the next folder when you’re ready.
- 1
Import your folders
Choose the source and your library. Queue multiple folders and use the organization and naming setup that works for you.
- 2
Verify the copies
Re-read source and library content. Review missing or unreadable files, and compare a visual sample if you want another look.
- 3
Review duplicates
See exact matches side by side. Choose a copy to keep and reverify content before moving unwanted extras to quarantine.
- 4
Choose your next step
Keep originals, use a separate archive destination, or review cleanup. Backup and cloud-upload status are separate from import verification.
A little less “where did I put it?”
From scattered folders
to a collection you can follow.
An illustrative example. Your actual results depend on file metadata, access and the options you choose.

A closer look
Useful tools.
One clear workspace.
Browse the library, resolve missing information and see the evidence behind your cleanup decisions.
Confidence comes from knowing what was checked
Before you clean up,
see the evidence.
“Finished processing” and “every file verified” are different things. FotoQuokka keeps those results separate.
Read the verification guideContent matters more than a filename
Full checks compare size and SHA-256 content hashes, including identical files saved under different names.
Unresolved means unresolved
Unavailable sources, unreadable content and changes during a scan remain visible. A disconnected source is never presented as freshly verified.
A second look, without a leap of faith
Visual samples and similarity suggestions help your review. They do not replace full hash checks or prove that different photos are interchangeable.
Verification is one layer. Backup is another.
Copy checks describe a selected scope at a recorded time. Keep a recoverable backup, and check OneDrive’s upload status separately when using its synced folder.
A little order. A lot of memories.
Meet your collection
all over again.
One organized home for your photos and videos, with clear verification before cleanup.

FotoQuokka@bbak.comGood questions
Before you
bring them in.
Does FotoQuokka upload my photos?
Organizing and verification run on your Windows PC and the drives you choose. No photo upload is required for those tasks. If you choose a OneDrive backup destination, OneDrive handles uploading the local backup according to your own OneDrive settings.
Will importing delete my originals?
Source handling follows Import Setup. Choose the option that leaves originals in place for your first test. Missing-file jobs created from verification leave originals in place and skip confirmed identical content. Review any move or cleanup choice carefully.
Can it work with an external drive or NAS?
Yes, when Windows can access the selected folders. Full source-to-library verification needs the source drives connected. You can locate originals that moved, or run a clearly labeled library-only check against saved import hashes.
What happens to duplicates?
Review exact matches, choose a keeper, then select a separate quarantine destination. Content is checked again before moving extras. Recover from quarantine without overwriting occupied paths. Similarity suggestions alone never trigger automatic removal.
Does it support HEIC photos and videos?
The beta includes a HEIC image decoder and manages supported video formats. Video previews depend on Windows thumbnail support; use Open file / video for playback in your installed player. Comparing a video thumbnail does not verify every frame.
Can I use my own folder and file names?
Yes. Folder & Naming Setup supports date, place, event and custom fields such as Project. Preview the naming structure, skip empty details and review proposed changes before organizing existing copies.
Is the 30-day trial available?
Not yet. The public download is not available yet. Trial licensing and the ability to grant extensions are on the pending enhancement list.
Is this already a finished commercial release?
No. It is a working beta tested with local fixtures. Different NAS connections, media formats and library histories still need broader testing. No promise of permanent data safety replaces a recoverable backup and checking the scope of a verification report.
