iPhone photo delet
I have Downloaded my photos from my iPhone to my PC. If I now delete them from my iPhone to create more space will it also delete them from the PC? I downloaded the Apple app onto the PC to allow the download.
iPhone 6, iOS 11

Hi N333pb,
Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today with your Photos on your iPhone and PC. It sounds like you are concerned that deleting them from your iPhone will delete them from your PC.
Since it sounds like you are using iCloud for Windows, iCloud Photos is integrated into this app. If you are using iCloud Photos, deleting a photo on one device will delete the photo everywhere. Have a look at: Set up and use iCloud Photos. On your iPhone, make sure you have turned on Optimize iPhone Storage in Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos. This will help conserve space on your iPhone.
You can also Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud.
Have a fantastic day!
