Hi. I have moved almost all of my pictures on my iPhone to separate albums. So I’d like to delete those pictures from Recents & have them just in those specific folders. However, when I delete a picture from Recents it also deletes it from my specific folder. Is there anyway to get around this problem?
iPhone SE, iOS 15
That is by design. The albums only hold printers to the pictures in Recents / Camera Roll but not the pictures themselves. The pictures in the albums are not copies, they just point to the picture in Recents.
There is no way to delete them from Recents, and keep them in the albums.

Thanks so much. Now that i know, I think I’ll move them to my computer so I can clear out the iPhone.
