I want to delete all pictures from my iPad but not my iphone. My iPad is not currently connected to my internet account. How can I do this without deleting all my pictures on my phone?

iPad Pro (3rd generation)

If you do not want or require your photos to be synchronised between your devices, you simply need to disable Photos in iCloud:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > Photos > 

  • iCloud Photos - set to OFF
  • My Photo Stream - set to OFF
  • Shared Albums - set to OFF


Once you have disabled iCloud Photos for your iPad, you can safely delete Photos from the iPad Photo Library without deleting photos from your iPhone.
