How to delete photo albums on my iphone 5?

I made some albums on my iphone of some pictures i took on my ipod and now i can't figure out how to delete it and its taking up space? I tried going to the album titles and deleting it and it won't let me. I've also tried going to the individual pictures and deleting it but it won't let me. I plugged it into my computer and it doesn't show those pictures on my phone so i'm not sure what to do. Does anyone know what i can do to delete them?

Launch your photos app and go to "Albums." Then hit edit and remove them.

This deletion will delete all the pictures in the album. So if you want to delete the photos to free up space, you should be careful.
There's another method to solve this problem, to backup your photos to your local computer. Then the pictures are saved on computer safely. Even you deleted your photos on iPhone, the pictures backed up on computer will be there for ever.

  • I can't delete albums in my photo gallery? So I imported some videos from my Macbook to my iPhone 6s+ (if the model helps) and I wanna delete those videos because I no longer need them. The thing is, I can't delete them? They're in an album called "Last import" and "Last 12 months". Every time I try deleting them, there isn't an option to delete the videos or the album at all. Please help? What do I do to delete these videos and album?
  • How to view my iphone4 photo albums from my mac, on a different computer? I've placed 3 albums full of hundreds of photos from my macbook pro to my iphone 4. My mac's hard drive broke (i was a fool and didn't back it up) so i lost those images. I can't find them using on Itunes or iphoto, while my phones connected to my mac, but there still on my iphone. Is there any way to get those photo albums, from my iphone back to my mac?
