I have a lof of sync photos I want to eliminate both from onedrive and phone. I need a fast and easy way to do this (without having to separately eliminate them on phone and one drive, which takes the double of the time). Is there an option that allows me to eliminate the photos I manually delete on phone also on one drive?

    Hi @Katerina Ghirardini

    Are you using a Samsung phone to sync photos with Gallery?

    • Samsung Gallery is a bi-directional synch, files modified or deleted from the Samsung Gallery will be reflected on the cloud. Any deletions done on the web or from other OneDrive endpoints will delete your data on the device.

    In addition, since your problem is related to OneDrive on mobile device, it is recommended that you also consult the Microsoft Answers forum.
