OnePlus Gallery found to conflict with Google Photos gobbling-up onboard storage

[Redaktion]

OnePlus smartphone users are reporting that deleting photos from the Google Photos app does not completely remove them from the device. Instead, the photos are moved to the OnePlus Gallery app's recycle bin, which takes up space over time unless the user identifies and removes them manually from the Gallery app.

I noticed a similar behavior with my Samsung s10e.

"The process [of clearing OnePlus Gallery Recycle Bin] can be done manually as well when needed", how, exactly? .o0

There is no such option present in the app, screenshots attached.

EDIT: Gallery for app screenshots, forum doesn't handle the (huge!) screenshot attachments too well:

Code Select Expand
