The program in gemini2 can find duplicate files and delete them for you or allow you to manually choose which to delete

You’ve got your computer iPhone settings (iTunes /Finder) to sync with the phone. Turn that crap off.

This app works fine but kinda slow.

And which of these settings you mentioned are supposedly responsible for photo duplication?

On which device do you then see the duplicates? Mac or iPhone?
