I can see the same gadgets twice

Yes, it might be the case. It means you also have “Release Management & Roadmaps -Jira Cloud” App (for Cloud version) or “Release Management for Jira“ App (for Server or DataCenter version) installed from the same vendor. If you look precisely the gadgets are slightly different:

  • logos are different

  • names have different ending.

“Release Management …” App gadgets are built around notion of “Release board“ that’s proprietary to the App add most configurations start from the board selector. “Gadgets for Program & Release Management“ are agnostic of “Release boards“ and built on top of Jira Releases / fixVersions only thus you would need to pick up single or multiple fixVersions for most of your Gadgets configuration.
