How To Empty Trash On iPhone?

Open the app that contains the trash, such as Photos, Mail, or Files

Go to the Trash, Recently Deleted, or Bin folder

Tap Select

Choose the items you want to delete

Tap Delete or Delete All

Confirm the deletion if prompted

In Photos, open Albums, scroll to Recently Deleted, then tap Delete All or Delete Selected

In Mail, open Mailboxes, go to Trash, then tap Edit and Delete All or delete individual messages

In Files, open Browse, tap Recently Deleted, then tap Select and Delete or Delete All

In Notes, open Recently Deleted, then tap Edit and Delete All or delete individual notes

In Voice Memos, open Recently Deleted, then tap Delete All or delete individual recordings

In Messages, delete messages or attachments manually if needed

Empty the trash in each app separately, since iPhone does not have one universal trash folder
