GoKawiilGoogle Photos testing 'Delete all' button for Ask Photos Remember List
A teardown of Google Photos for Android (v7.95) by Android Authority uncovered a hidden 'Delete all' button for the Remember List, a feature tied to Ask Photos that stores information users share to improve search and editing. Currently the Remember List only allows deleting entries one at a time, and the new option would include a confirmation prompt before wiping everything at once.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Bulk deletion would give users a simpler way to reset what Ask Photos knows about them or purge sensitive shared information, addressing a gap in the current one-by-one removal process. It remains unclear, per the report, whether Google retains this personal data elsewhere even after a user deletes it from the visible list, and the feature is unreleased so it may change or never ship.
- A teardown found a hidden 'Delete all' button for Google Photos' Remember List feature.
- The feature would let users wipe all shared Ask Photos data at once, with a confirmation step.
- It's unconfirmed whether deleted data is fully removed from Google's systems, and the feature isn't yet live.
