How deleting files from your phone and our cloud works

What happens when you delete files from your phone and in Let's Go Cloud.

Deleting a photo from the Photos timeline in Let's Go Cloud for iOS or Android

  • The photo(s) will be deleted from the device

  • All copies of the photo(s) in your Let's Go Cloud account will be moved to the trash

  • If you have iCloud Photo Library enabled on your iOS device, the photo(s) will also be deleted from the iCloud Photo Library.

Deleting a file or folder from "Files" in Let's Go Cloud for iOS or Android

  • The file or folder will be moved to the Let's Go Cloud trash

  • The delete does NOT affect files on your mobile device, even if it is a photo or file that is saved locally on the device

Delete a photo or video from the mobile device (outside the Let's Go Cloud app)

  • The photo or video will be deleted from the device

  • If the photo or video is backed up to Let's Go Cloud, it will still be visible in your Photos timeline and kept in your Let's Go Cloud account.

Deleting files from a mobile device with "Free Up Space" in the Let's Go Cloud app

  • This is the safest way of deleting local files and freeing up space since the Let's Go Cloud app will cross-check that the files are backed up with Let's Go Cloudbefore deleting them
