Step 1: Accessing the Photos App
Begin by navigating to the home screen of your iPhone and locating the “Photos” app icon. Tap on it to launch the app.
Step 2: Selecting the Folder
Once you’re in the Photos app, locate and tap on the “Albums” tab at the bottom of the screen. Next, scroll through the list of available albums and select the folder you wish to delete.
Step 3: Opening the Folder
After selecting the desired folder, you will see its content displayed on the screen. Tap on the thumbnail representing the folder to open it.
Step 4: Deleting the Folder
Upon opening the folder, tap on the “Select” button located in the top-right corner of the screen. This will allow you to choose multiple photos within the folder at once.
Next, tap on each photo you want to delete. Selected photos will display a blue checkmark on their thumbnail. Once you have chosen all the photos you want to remove, tap on the trash can icon also located in the top-right corner of the screen.
Step 5: Confirming Deletion
A pop-up message will appear asking you to confirm the deletion. To proceed, tap on the “Delete [X] Photos” option, where [X] represents the number of photos you have selected for removal. After confirming, the selected photos will be moved to the “Recently Deleted” folder.
Step 6: Permanently Deleting the Folder
To permanently delete the folder and its contents, go back to the Albums tab and select the “Recently Deleted” folder. Once opened, you will see a list of photos awaiting final deletion, with a time indication of how long they will stay there.
If you want to immediately remove all the photos, tap on the “Select” button in the top-right corner, followed by the “Delete All” option at the bottom-left corner. Confirm the action by tapping on “Delete [X] Photos”.
