This is nearly enough for me to leave Apple. This is INCREDIBLY complicated. I've spend 1/2 hour scouring the internet for this answer. I don't want to hit select 150 times. I want to just DELETE ALL photos from my iPhone. Could there possibly be an easy answer Apple? How can I quickly delete all the unwanted photos on my iPhone?

Photos are beautiful memories that we save on our phone. With several phones in the market with superior quality cameras, the need for having a camera with us at all times to capture loving moments has almost vanished. With the phone in our hands, or even in our pockets, capturing such memories is easier than ever before!

This lands up with our gallery overflowing with such memories that we can go through anytime that we feel like. This is the reason why so many of us prefer taking most of the photographs on our iPhones - the convenience of easily taking such pictures and going through them at our will and fancy is an irresistible option.

Delete Unwanted iPhone Photos

Now, while saving photos on iPhone has major advantages as we have just seen above, sometimes, we need to delete these photos to create more space on our phone. Sometimes, you will notice that even on deleting the photographs from your Gallery, you get the message ‘Storage almost full’ on your iPhone.

This is because even though you are deleting photos from the main album, iPhone is shifting those photos to another album called ‘Recently Deleted’ which serves as the trash folder, where your deleted photos still reside on a timer of 30 days, before getting actually deleted.

That is why on deleting several pictures, when you go to Settings -> General -> Usage, and select the Manage Storage option, you will see a break up of the space that the different apps on your phone are taking up, and most probably, the Gallery will be somewhere right on top. Thanks to the fact that your deleted pictures haven’t really been deleted.

The idea behind proving this service is pretty helpful. If you accidentally land up deleting any important picture on your iPhone, all you have to do is visit the ‘Recently deleted’ album and select the one you want back. And your problem is solved. So in this way, you still have a chance of retrieving your pictures.

Another problem that you might face is that you will have to individually select each and every photo to delete and that consumes quite a lot of your precious time. Having a method that allowed us to delete all the unwanted pics in one click, would have made our lives much easier.
