How to get photos I deleted on “photos” to delete off my iCloud?
I just got a new phone (iPhone 17) last week— old one (iPhone SE) completely broke so I had to download everything from my iCloud.
When I looked at my photos app I had like 5000 photos more than I did before. I looked through and there were photos that I deleted off my phone years ago that have apparently been synced to my iCloud this whole time???
I keep looking for answers but everywhere just says it should happen automatically or you have to wait a few days or whatever, which is obviously not true at least in my case since these photos were deleted years ago! I also immediately started going through and deleting photos off this phone, started a few days ago and they’re still all synced to my iCloud!
Please help I don’t understand why the photos never deleted and still won’t delete 😭
