You can tap this button to merge duplicate sets into an individual photo. Inside the Duplicates album, you'll see duplicates listed in chronological order, with a Merge button beside each set. (Bear in mind that the album only appears if you do indeed have duplicate images on your iPhone.) Simply tab the Albums tab and scroll down to find it. In iOS 16, however, that's no longer the case, because the Photos app will now automatically detect any duplicates in your library and collate them together for your inspection.įinding duplicates is easy, since Apple has added a new Duplicates album under the "Utilities" section of the Photos app.


In previous versions of iOS, relying on your iPhone to automatically track down duplicate photos in your Photo Library wasn't an option, and if you wanted to purge your device's storage of duplicates you had to download a third-party app to do it for you.
