How to Find and Delete Duplicate Photos on iPhone
CleanMaster scans your photo library for exact duplicates, shows them in a fast swipeable grid, and lets you bulk-select and delete — reclaiming storage in a few taps, entirely on-device.
Steps
- Open CleanMaster and run the photo scan.
- Browse the duplicates in the swipeable grid.
- Bulk-select the copies you don’t need.
- Preview any item full-screen to be sure before you commit.
- Delete the selection to reclaim the space.
Why it works this way
Duplicate photos pile up invisibly — from saves, shares, and backups — and quietly eat gigabytes. CleanMaster surfaces the exact copies so deleting them is safe and fast, and keeps the whole scan on-device so your library is never uploaded just to be tidied. Incremental rescans keep the results current as you keep shooting.
Tips & edge cases
- Preview before deleting — the full-screen, Photos-style view lets you double-check.
- Rescan is incremental, with a one-tap banner when new duplicates appear.
- Exact duplicates first, then tackle similar photos and screenshots separately.
FAQ
Does it find exact duplicates or just similar shots? It finds exact duplicates here; visually similar photos and screenshots are handled separately so you stay in control.
Can I delete a batch at once? Yes. Bulk-select in the swipeable grid and delete the whole selection in one action.
Are my photos uploaded to scan them? No. The scan runs 100% on-device; nothing is uploaded.
