Deleting Photos and Videos Through iCloud Drive:

If these are not officially located in the photos app, then you can delete them through use of the iCloud Drive app.


I. Enable iCloud Drive on an iPhone:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: [your name] (the top item)
  3. Tap: iCloud
  4. Tap: [an item] (so that it is green)
  5. Tap: iCloud Drive (so that it is green)


Then...
