How to safely delete duplicates using Apple’s Photos in iOS 16
Apple has added a new “Duplicates” album to Photos on iOS 16, and given us the tools to save space by safely deleting unwanted extra copies of images.
Maybe your finger slipped while using AirDrop to send images from your Mac to your iPhone. Or, in a totally random, entirely made up example, possibly, just possibly, you once imported your old Aperture library three times.Without you doing anything at all, iOS 16 will now find every duplicate photo you’ve got. Then it’s up to you what you want to do with them.
