Multi-select photos in Google

If you want to select a bunch of pictures in your Google Photos for deletion or perhaps to add to an album, you can select multiples by dragging rather than tapping each one.

Tap and hold the first candidate until you enter the edit screen. You can continue to hold and drag your finger around to select multiple photos until you have the ones you need.

You can even lift your finger then long press and hold on another photo further up or down the list to select non-contiguous photos. You can scroll up and down the photos as well (all while being in edit mode).

When you’ve got them all, select from the options at the bottom of the page to Share, Add to, Delete, etc…​
