I have deleted photos from iphone 6 but the photo library still takes up a lot of space in internal storage. How can I delete photo library from storage on the iphone?

It worked. Strange this problem not solved after a long time

It was solved 2 years ago. Look at the date of the message you replied to.

However, that is only one solution; there are several different problems that cause the same symptoms.

Hello There, ive faced same problem, however ive managed to solved it, what i did i found a folder "recently deleted " inside the Photo Apps and i just cleared it up and the space increased. I believe the folder act as detour for all recently deleted pictures before it is deleted permenently in after certain periods, not sure how long. This might be the safety cautions for those that with quicky fingers accidentally deleting their pictures resulting best moments lost so that they can be retrieve if notice earlier.

Correct. Recently Deleted is like a trash or recycle folder in a file system. Unlike those, however, photos are removed after 30 days.

This worked superbly for myself and my wife's iPhone. Well done indeed. How did you find this solution though?
