How to Quickly Delete Unwanted Screenshots on Samsung
2 min read
Summary
Screenshots can often be useful, but they can also end up cluttering galleries and using up storage space if they are not deleted
Fortunately, there are ways to automatically delete screenshots after they have been shared, or to add a dedicated delete button directly to the toolbar.
This can be achieved on Samsung phones by enabling the Delete after sharing option in the Settings > Advanced features > Screenshots and screen recordings menu.
To add a delete button to the screenshot toolbar, Samsung’s Good Lock customization app and the Nice Shot module need to be downloaded.
Once downloaded, the Add delete button toggle can be enabled in the Nice Shot module.
After these steps are completed, a trash icon will appear in the toolbar after a screenshot is taken, allowing for the screenshot to be quickly and easily deleted. Hogg also highlighted how the delete after sharing feature can help prevent the screenshot album from getting cluttered with unnecessary screenshots, claiming that the feature is a “great way to keep your gallery lean without any extra work.” Furthermore, Hogg pointed out that the delete button in the screenshot toolbar is a “fantastic way to recover storage space with almost no work.
