The new version of this application has the ability to identify and quickly remove duplicate photos, as well as apply the same settings to multiple pictures at the same time. Let’s see how this can be done.

How to Delete Duplicate Photos on iPhone

Many sometimes face the fact that iphone running out of free space. Unnecessary applications are the first to be removed in such a situation. After they also end, the course is cleaning the Photos app from unnecessary pictures. When photographing, we often take several identical shots “just in case”.

Given the fact that “just in case” almost never occurs, such photos, along with duplicates, remain hanging in the smartphone’s memory. To do this, Apple has added a tool to identify duplicate photos and clean them up in the iOS 16 Photos app. When using this function, excess pictures are moved to the Recently Deleted album, from which they will be permanently deleted after thirty days.

To use this feature, your iPhone must have iOS 16 installed. At the moment, the system exists only as a beta version for developers. We do not recommend installing beta versions on the main device due to possible system instability and compatibility issues with non-adapted third-party programs. If you still decide to install, do not forget to create a backup copy.

• On an iPhone with iOS 16, open the Photos app.
• Go to the “Albums” tab.
• Scroll down to the “Other” section.
• Go to the “Duplicates” album.
• All duplicate pictures will be in this album.

The system can group not only two identical pictures, but also more.

To remove duplicatesdo the following:

• Click on the “Merge” button next to each stack of duplicates.
• If you want to delete all duplicate pictures at once, then in the upper right corner, click on “Select”.
• Tap on “Select All”.
• Click on “Merge N Duplicates”.

Previously, these actions were available only through third-party, often paid applications. Now it is part of the operating system. If you decide that the pictures were deleted by mistake, then just restore them from the Recently Deleted folder.

How to edit multiple photos on iPhone

The following innovation will be very convenient for those users who often edits photos. Especially if the same settings are applied to a group of pictures. It often happens that photos from one place require the same edits, for example, saturation. If there are a lot of pictures, then it takes a lot of time.

In iOS 16, Apple added a tool that allows you to copy applied settings from one photo and apply them to several others. This will require:

• On an iPhone with iOS 16, go to the Photos app.
• Open the photo you want to edit.
