How To Delete All Photos From Google Photos Permanently !
Permanently deleting all photos from Google Photos requires a two-step process: first removing them from your main photo library, and then clearing them from the trash folder. This video walks through the exact method for doing both using the Google Photos mobile app, but the steps are nearly identical on desktop.
Start by launching the Google Photos app and ensuring you're signed in with the correct Google account. In the main Photos tab, tap and hold on any photo to begin selecting. Once selection mode is active, use the 'Select All' option or manually select all the images you want to remove. After selecting, tap the trash bin icon to delete them. This action moves all selected photos to the Trash folder, where they are stored for 30 days before being permanently deleted.
To complete the permanent deletion immediately, go back to the app’s main menu and tap on 'Library' or 'Collections' depending on your app version. Select 'Trash' (sometimes labeled 'Bin' in some regions). In the Trash section, long press on any photo to enter selection mode, then tap the three-dot icon in the top-right corner and choose 'Empty Trash.' Confirm your choice to permanently delete all photos and videos from your account storage.
Please note: Once items are permanently deleted from the Trash, they cannot be recovered. If you're trying to free up space or remove sensitive content, this method ensures complete deletion from both your device and cloud storage.
