Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I am very confused, even when I use iCloud Photos, it still says I have over 200 photos “restoring” to my photos app. I just today deleted almost all my photos. I have 2 remaining. It still says I have 75 GB of photos storage.
iPhone 14
Hi there ThatOneVideoGuy,
Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.
We understand that you're trying to manage your iCloud Photos.
If you've deleted many photos, be sure to check your "Recently Deleted" folder to be sure that is cleared as well, as photos that are still in there for up to 30 days can take up space.
A good way to check this is by also visiting iCloud Photos using a web browser on a computer or Mac at iCloud Photos
This should help. Let us know if you have any questions.
Take care.

Hello ThatOneVideoGuy,
When you delete a photo, they stay in the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days in the Recently Deleted album, they are permanently deleted unless you permanently delete them before that time.
Once they are deleted from the Recently Deleted album, they are deleted everywhere.
Thanks.
Thanks! I have one more question. If I delete the recently deleted section, will those photos disappear from the iCloud as well?
Thank you!
Hi ThatOneVideoGuy,
