Image Difference Finder

Differences between images are sometimes difficult to spot, but there is a much easier way to tell two seemingly identical pictures apart.

Image Difference Finder is a small, open-source application that can perform a comparison of two image files and highlight any differences that are found. It is quite basic, but it offers some customization options and isn’t too difficult to use.

The setup process is as simple as can be, as you don’t need to install the application before running it. When you’re ready to get started, just run the downloaded executable file and you are good to go.

Next, you need to select the original image and the one it should be compared to. Quite a few formats seem to be supported, but there is no documentation available to let you know which are included.

After loading the two images, you can set the desired sensitivity to determine how differences are detected, as well as set the Spot Light value. You also have the option of only drawing the differences between images.

Once the process is completed, the results are displayed in the form of an image file, which can be saved locally. However, the image is always opened in full-screen mode, which can be quite inconvenient.

On the whole, Image Difference Finder is clearly a pretty simple piece of software, as it doesn’t offer a lot of features, and it also doesn’t come with any documentation.

The user interface also lacks polish, making this look like an early version of the program that still needs quite a bit of work. Of course, an image comparison tool can be very useful, but this particular utility has to be improved in several respects.
