Since August, my iPhone Photos app has decided I need twice the love from my partner’s Samsung Galaxy.

Whenever he sends me a photo he took with his phone via WhatsApp, I get: – Copy 1: normal, like always. – Copy 2: exact same shot… but with a mysterious “wide” icon in the corner and next to JPEG in info. – The icon copy even has more megapixels than the normal one. – In WhatsApp it’s sent only once. – Only happens with fresh camera shots, not forwarded/saved pics.

I’ve had HD upload/download on forever, but this new duplicate thing is messy, clutters my Photos, and eats storage for breakfast.

So: How do I get my iPhone to chill and only keep ONE copy, preferably the high-res one?
