How to delete all pictures from iPhone
but not from iCloud
You may just pull the switch and unsync your photos from iCloud: Settings -> Apple ID -> iCloud -> Photos -> Set the toggle to "off". Make sure you've chosen to "Optimize iPhone Storage", or the photos will stay on your iPhone.
This will partially remove photos from iPhone, and a full copy of your library will be available in iCloud
HOWEVER: Copies of photos will still stay on your iPhone *sour face*.
WHY IS THAT? Unsyncing photos just places their copies in iCloud, it doesn't remove them from device as long as it has enough memory, and you can't make Apple do otherwise.
… SOLUTION? Delete the rest of iPhone photos from PC or simply go through them one by one on your iPhone.
Delete photos from iPhone
When it comes to mass-deleting photos from iPhone, Apple doesn't allow you to select all of them at once. Of course, you can just reset your iPhone, but this is not always the best way to go.
Here is what you can do instead⚡:
- Delete all iPhone photos using Windows Explorer
- Back up photos to PC, then delete from iPhone
⚡ First, make sure you have disabled iCloud Photos on your device.
Delete all iPhone photos using Windows Explorer
To mass-delete iPhone photos, you can always connect your iPhone to PC (via a USB cable), then find it in the Windows Explorer panel on the left, navigate inside and DELETE all the folders you see. Ruthless, but effective:
HOWEVER: You won't be able to preview or export photos in the right order before you delete them.
WHY IS THAT? Because Windows Explorer doesn't care about the order and if you try to just export the images it will rotate half of them and mess with their timeline.
SOLUTION? Use an alternative way to export photos before you erase them from iPhone.
Back up photos to PC, then delete
If you want to back up your photos to PC just in case, CopyTrans Photo allows you to:
⭐ preview all your photos,
⭐ export them to PC,
⭐ then delete from iPhone.
Here is how to remove photos from iPhone to computer:
-
Download CopyTrans Photo and install it:
Free downloadIf you need help installing CopyTrans Photo, please refer to the installation guide.
-
Launch CopyTrans Photo and connect your iPhone to PC. If you need help with drivers, we got you. You will see your iPhone photos on the left, and PC photos and folders on the right.
I chose an empty PC folder on the right: that's why there are no items shown.
-
If you want to back up your photos first, click on Full Backup and select the destination folder, then click "OK".
Sit back and let CopyTrans Photo do all the work (give it time, it is working hard to transfer all the images in original quality with meta data!)
-
If all is well, your photos are waiting for you in the designated folder:
-
Now, it's time to delete photos from iPhone.
On the left, select Camera Roll -> Press Ctrl+A -> Press Delete -> Click on Apply changes.
If necessary, repeat the same steps for Photo Library.
-
Done! Your photos are gone, erased, never to return.
Here is how to delete all pictures from iPhone while also saving them to PC. If you want to, you can upload selected images to iCloud to retain easy access to them.
My photos weren't deleted
