Finding Duplicate Photos

Hello! I have many pictures that were uploaded twice to Dropbox. Is there an easy way to find duplicates and review / delete them? Thank you!

Hey bethgdunn, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community!

 

At the moment, Dropbox doesn't offer such a feature, but you should be able to do this through some kind of third party app.

 

Also, feel free to up-vote this idea on our idea board, to show your support, since it's under investigation by our team.

 

Thanks!

    DropBox is in the business of selling cloud storage.   As a business model, why ever would they make it easy to find and delete duplicate files?
