Both Apple Photos and Google Photos act as a medium to show you the photos on your phone. Google Photos is an app-based extension of the service. iCloud Photos uses Apple’s Photos app to work.
Let’s see how to do that by understanding the working of these two services first. In other words, you want to unlink Google Photos and iCloud.
Right? All you want to do is delete all pictures from Google Photos but not from iCloud. Currently, when you are trying to delete the photo from the Google Photos app, you must be surprised to find out that the photo gets deleted from iPhone and eventually iCloud too. So now, you might want to remove photos from Google Photos without deleting them from iCloud.ĭon’t worry. I’m assuming you must have installed the Google Photos app on your iPhone and iPad, and it has synced all your photos to Google servers. The reason being their conflicting nature. Don’t just re-run it per instructions, refresh the page first.The cloud services should make our life easy. At that moments, I just refresh the web page and re-run the tool (actually the javascript) in the console.
Sometimes during the deletion, it may tell you that “No more images to delete” while you still have many to go. As long as your network speed and machine’s memory can afford, you can zoom out the page to the extreme (it doesn’t matter you can see the text on that zoom level or not). So the more images can be loaded in one page, the more it will delete in one batch. The tool will help you to delete all images on current page and then reload the page. You can try to zoom out (to allow more images loaded in current webpage). Look at, I see 100+ replies on the same ask. However, since I have years of photos stored in Google Photos, it will still be crazy!Īnd this is not just my challenge. I can either select photos one by one or by date which is a little more efficient. Its web page doesn’t provide a handy way to do that. However, this can be crazy if you have a lot of photos in Google Photos. At the end of the day, my purpose is to free up storage to bring back Gmail. Now it sounds better, right? Delete all photos from Google PhotosĪfter I download all photoes and open the zip files to double check they are not corrupted, my next challenge becomes how to delete all photos from Google Photos. So I actually go back and create another export with “10G” as the size so that I end up with 6 links.
