Deleting images

Permanently delete images from your project

Deleting single images

When viewing a full-sized image, you can delete it by clicking on the three-dot menu icon in the upper right hand corner, selecting "Delete image" from the drop-down menu, and completing the confirmation prompt that appears.

Deleting a selection of multiple images

You can delete one or more images in the images list by clicking the first image you'd like to delete then shift + clicking the last image you'd like to delete in the range. Once the images have been selected, right-click any of them to open a popup menu, select "Delete images", and complete the confirmation prompt that appears.

Deleting all currently filtered images

If you would like to delete all of the images that match the current selection of filters - for example, perhaps you'd like to delete all images with people in them, or all images from a certain camera taken before a certain date, or all of the images in your project entirely - select the three-dot menu item from the bottom of the Filters Panel, select "Delete all currently filtered images", and complete the confirmation prompt that appears.

Deletion limits

Animl supports deleting a maximum of 200,000 images at a time when deleting images by filter.

If the number of images that match your current filters exceeds 200k, you may need to apply additional filters to stay within the limit and perform multiple separate deletion requests to complete the task.
