This camera feature can make any amateur photographer look like a seasoned professional in that it seriously improves image quality. However, there is a glaring downside to taking and collecting these photos \u2014 they siphon a lot of phone memory from your device. If you take and keep a lot of these photos on your smartphone, you will find yourself to be low on memory in no time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DFNDR\u2019s Duplicate Photos function is most salient to the issue at hand. This feature will identify any repeated photos in your image gallery, and give you the option to select and delete these copies with ease. This way, you\u2019ll have more space for worthwhile photos in no time. If you have a lot of photos on your device, then this is a necessary feature to take advantage of because you\u2019ll spend a lot less time identifying and removing duplicate photos. Click here to locate and delete duplicate photos in order to free up space on your device:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"psafe:\/\/launch\/duplicated_photo\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9067\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9067\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Duplicate-Photos01-300x78.jpg\" alt=\"Duplicate Photos01\" width=\"300\" height=\"78\" \/><\/a><\/center><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But why do these photos take up so much space? Well, to compose the HDR, your phone snaps a variety of simultaneous pictures to assimilate a picture of higher definition. This conglomerate of pictures takes up more memory on your phone than just one photo, for obvious reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can free up a lot of space by deselecting the HDR mode on your Android\u2019s camera. Open up the camera app and click the cogwheel in the corner to take you to settings. You should see a grid consisting of different camera features. Find the \u201cHDR (rich tone)\u201d and make sure it\u2019s \u201coff.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, turning off your HDR mode doesn\u2019t delete the previous photos taken by your HDR camera, which are likely hogging memory. That\u2019s why, in addition to turning off this mode, you should use the Duplicate Photos feature to remove unnecessary photos and free up space on your device.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you still want to take HDR photos, then make sure to backup all of your photos to your computer or to cloud storage more frequently. After the backup is complete, remove all of the HDR photos from your phone. That way, you can still use your phone to take HDR photos, but still have storage space on your phone for new apps, photos, videos, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HDR photos are sharper and more impressive, but they take up a lot of space on your device. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":83,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[1974,4025,215,1547],"class_list":["post-9060","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-performance","tag-device","tag-dfndr","tag-photos","tag-space"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
