Free up space in the Photos app you didn’t know you could use!
Having an organized photo library can become a challenge. And even if we take care to achieve it, it can be filled with temporary images from third-party applications, preventing us from finding the images we need and taking up valuable storage space. If this is your case, don’t worry! In this article, we will teach you how to delete saved photos on iphone from a specific app.
Many apps, such as photo editing or social media apps, often save copies of the images we create or upload. Others like Picsew, Canva also usually save a local copy of the images. This is done for several reasons:
- Backup: In case you need to reuse the image or share it in another way.
- Facilitate access: Be able to quickly find the image without having to search for it in the original application.
- Additional features: Some applications allow you to make subsequent edits to the saved image.
