Duplicate pictures

[stevie75]

When do a search in the galaxy gallery for duplicate picture's I get a notice pop up saying can't do it at this time as pictures not been analysed, how do I analyse the picture's.

 Thank you in advance for any help

@stevie75: Have you recently synced your pictures to the Gallery? For clarity, what steps are you taking to search for duplicate pictures? Have you tried selecting the 'Pictures' tab > Tap the 3 dots in the right > Group similar images, to see if this helps? 

As an alternative approach, please try closing the Gallery app > Swipe up from your Home screen > Samsung (folder) > My Files > Scroll to the bottom of the page > Analyse storage, then check the duplicated files section.
