How can I delete "Memories files" in bulk on my iPad Photos app?

My iPad Photos app continues many, many Memories files that I want to delete. I have been deleting these files one at a time. There are so many (I have no idea where they came from) that it has become very time consuming. Is there any way that I can delete Memories files in buik?

It had never occurred to me to delete Memories, though I seldom look at them. I notice that I can delete multiple memories in Photos on my Mac, but, like you, I can't see a way to do it on a Phone.


I do wonder why you want do delete them. You can, with the "Customize & Reorder" menu, prevent them from appearing on your phone, if you like. They certainly don't take up much storage space, since they exist only when you view them. (They're really just lists of pictures-- not the picture files, themselves.)


What do you think?
