In the past I was always able to organize my photos into albums of my choice on my Galaxy S8. I would simply click on the photo, choose Move Photo and the desired pictures would then transfer to the album of choice and would literally move out of "Pictures". Now when going through the exact same process and choosing Move Photo, not Copy Photo it moves the photo into the album I choose but basically copies it and leaves it in the original Pictures album and I delete the photo from Pictures it automatically deletes it from the album I wanted it in. It is exactly what my iphones did and it is a feature I always hated when owning it. I am not sure if it is something that changed with the latest update or not. Wondering if anyone else has been having the same issue and/or if anyone knows how to resolves this. TIA
 
That means that it's showing as being in 2 albums, but it's only in one of the folders - so deleting it deletes it. That means that it's not copying it, it's moving it. Why it's showing in both albums at the same time? Probably because moving no longer triggers Media Scan fully, so after you move a picture, either run media.Re.Scan or restart the phone.
