The “All Photos” album will show all photos even if they are also in another album, there are several automatically generated albums including a “Screenshots” album that shows all your screenshots.


Albums are not folders, with folders you have photos that are located in the folder and no where else, if they show up somewhere else it’s because you have multiple copies.

With Albums, you have all your photos and each Album is a list of photos, but the photos are not exclusively in one album. A photo can be in an infinite number of albums at the same time without having multiple copies.


There is no way to hide the All Photos album, and it will continue to show your photos even if they are also in another album.
