Answer: You access the storage of your camera using your mobile device.
**** CAUTION: before you delete any image files, make sure you uploaded everything captured first! ****
Mobile App
Here are instructions for using a mobile app in your iOS device:
- To delete files from Insta360 cameras:
- Connect your Insta360 camera.
- Open the Insta360 App. If not already on your iOS mobile device, download the Insta360 App from the App Store. Also, make sure you choose the version with the yellow circle and white background for the logo.
- Tap on Settings.

- Tap on Album.
- Tap on the checkbox at the top right corner.

- Reboot the iOS mobile device to complete the process. Some iOS devices require you to power them off and then back on again.
