iOS 16 Photos - No duplicates option under utilities

Updated to iOS 16 on my 13 Pro max this afternoon and I don’t have an option for duplicates in the Photos app. Is anyone else having this problem?

Hi mkmanifesto,

The ‘Duplicates’ album in Photos appears under “Utilities” when Photos detects duplicates in the library. The detection process requires the device to be locked and connected to power, and depending on the size of the library and other background tasks going on, could happen quickly or take up to a few days to fully process.

Take care!
