Why is it so hard to delete all photos on ipad? All the methods involve selecting a few at a time but i need to delete 50000 photos. Flattening the device would be faSTER than deleting using the desribed methods

Thanks, but I have 20 years of photos to delete. So that's about 7300 days or "moments" to go though. There really ought to be a better way to do this. Even that monstrosity iTunes won't let you bulk delete photos.


Honestly, it's looking like it would be faster to flatten the device. Only Apple could have the ignorance blended with the arrogance to have such a shortcoming.
