[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1634469, member: 83420"] Hi RadDave I think we are saying the same thing. There is a "delete all" for deleting photos into the "Recently Deleted" folder; but I don't have that function for deleting the photos which are in the "Recently Deleted" folder. I think you and Jake are saying the same when you state "and 30 days is the countdown". The OP has over a thousand photos which he has deleted using the "Delete All" function which has put them, I assume, in the "Recently Deleted" folder. His point was that they are still taking up space. As Jake and, I believe, you are saying, wait 30 days and they're history. True. I was simply adding that if the OP wanted the space sooner, he'd have to go into the "Recently Deleted" folder and select all 1080 photos individually to delete them permanently. At least that is how things are on my iPhone 6. (iOS 8.1.2). Ian [/QUOTE]
