Creating photo albums within the iOS Photos app is a quick, easy, and useful way to categorise and share memorable trips or events. But how do you delete them?
Created albums within the Photos app often only have a limited shelf life. If you’re in the habit of backing up and deleting older photos to free up storage room, you can often find yourself with multiple blank albums sat in the Photos app.
Thankfully, Apple has made it easy to delete photo albums directly on your iPhone. Here’s how.
