The Photos app on the iPhone/iPad makes it easy to add, organize, as well as delete albums. Plus, you also have the ability to delete multiple albums at the same time from the album-editing screen.
Deleting a photo album doesn’t delete any photos that are inside the album. The photos will continue to be available in the Recent album as well as in other albums.

You will find all of the albums in the “My Albums” section at the top. Tap on “See All” it can be found in the top-right.
You will then be able to see a grid of all the albums. Tap on “Edit” from the top-right.

To delete an album, tap on the red “-” button found in the top-left of an album image.
Then, from the pop-up message that appears, confirm the action by selecting “Delete Album”. You can delete any album other than the “Recents” as well as the “Favorites” albums.
