Hello folks,
I am wondering if anyone could help me with a solution of deleting the saved photos album on my IPAD
I know how to delete individual photos by using the box arrow on the top right corner...
I have some 1000 photos to be deleted and I don't want to go one by one selecting and deleting....
I trying to find a solution to delete the entire album ...


I use pc any help is greatly appreciated

Importing some stuff to actually try it myself...

Edit: Ok. Post #11 didn't work, but #23 actually did.

- Hit the edit mode button
- Select the first photo and hold with two fingers until the check appears. Now when you drag it will check every picture you touch.

So, you still need to slide over every picture, but it should be a little faster.

To delete entire album go to te albums page, click edit, click the "X" on the album you want to delete, and click the confirmation box that pops up.

I had the same issue - wanted to clear out iPad so could use as backup for my trip. I deleted over a thousand photos by checking each one! Definitely needs to be a simpler way!!!

This worked for me too. I had to go back & select those few pictures I missed with the slide, but definitely easier than selecting them individually.
