- Go to your Photos app and choose the Select button on top which will allow you to select multiple photos at once. You can then tap the red circle at the bottom, and choose Delete. If you want to delete all your photos in one go, just tap on a photo and then tap the red circle at the bottom.
With an iPhone 3GS or earlier:
- Select all the photos on your device (not including ones in Camera Roll) and choose Edit > Delete . A confirmation message will appear prompting you that all photos will be deleted from your iOS device.
With an iPod Touch:
- Select all the photos on your device (not including ones in Camera Roll) and choose Edit > Delete. A confirmation message will appear prompting you that all photos will be deleted from your iOS device.
- With a new iPod Touch you can delete all the photos from your device by going to the Photos app and then choose Edit > Delete. You’ll have to re-sync it with your computer when you do so.
With an iPad:

Note: Be aware that all your photos will be deleted from your device, even if they are synced to your computer. So if you want to keep any of them, it’s good practice to create a backup on your computer first before proceeding. You will then be able to restore the photos back onto your iOS device later.
What if I don’t want to sync my iPhone or iPad?
You have two options: First is, when you choose to delete, it will only erase those photos which are saved in APP such as iPhoto.
Second is when you choose to delete for iPhone 4S and 3GS, it may take more than an hour. You can manual upload those photos which are not erased by iTunes by following steps: Connect both your iPhone and computer. Click on your device icon under Devices on left panel . Click Summary. Click on Manually manage music and videos option. Click on Apply button.
But if you choose to delete all the photos, this article doesn’t cover the deleting of apps or clearing of your iPhone cache (only for the new iPod Touch though). You may want to try an app like PhoneClean if you want to do that instead.
