Or better yet. A single photo I take of the kids will be stored in my camera roll. I will then share it with family using three different messengers. Now I have 4 copies. Each of the individual (recoded) are stored inside those messengers and also backed up. This even happens when sharing the same photo multiple times in different chats with the same messenger.

Is there any way to do de duplication here? Or just outright delete all the derivatives?
