Dear folk

On my iPhone X I set up [Backup and Sync] to the Gmail cloud / [Google Photos] app

My apple ID is my gmail account.

Backup is working perfectly once I take photos ,I can see them get uploaded to my gmail cloud / [Google Photos] app.

Question
If I want to delete some photos on my cellphone is there a waiting time for those photos to get deleted from my [Google Photos] app ??

If so can I change that waiting period ? Because right now they are not getting deleted straightaway ?

Thx

Hi!

When you delete them from Google Photos, if they’re synced from your phone library, you’ll see a prompt to delete them from there too.

If they’re deleted from your phone instead, they stay in Google Photos.

i realized that but i thought there might be a trick.
But it seems to me there is none.
Thanks for your help

Go straight to Google photos and delete there, that way they delete off your phone as well.
