How To Delete Photos from Android Devices

Taking pictures on our smartphones has become more and more popular with the rise of social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook. This has also resulted in smartphone manufacturers investing more and more in camera technology to meet the demands for better-quality photos. The only downside here is that the better the quality of a photo, the bigger the file size. This means that if you take hundreds of photos on your smartphone, you're going to run out of storage space pretty soon.

Our recommendation is to copy your Android phone photos to your computer and then delete them from your phone, both of which can be done using Droid Transfer.
