I have a iphone 6. I searched but found nothing. Is it bad to have a lot of photos on your phone? I delete unnecessary ones promptly but do have some that aren't needed but I like them. The only one that I deleted and regret is my friend who died.

I assume you are not backing them up. You know the answer to this. What if you lost that phone tomorrow? Don't tell me how careful you are...
Of course, it is bad.BAD! It is far and away one of the dumbest things people do. Keeping photos on a phone: AND NOT BACKING THEM UP.
It takes hardly ANYTHING to back them up.
  • Connect to a computer periodically and back them up.
  • Use iCloud and backup them up automatically for 99 cents a month
  • Using Dropbox synch and a Dropbox account
  • Several other methods....

I only keep my favorites on my phone. Under 100. Mrs5150 keeps well over 400. We download the rest and back them up. My 100 and her 400 are on iCloud also

192. I try to keep it under 200, by downloading at about this number to a PC, then putting onto a flash drive to view on the TV.

Around 3800 for the past 5 years or so. All backed up to iCloud and on my Mac. At some point I should delete some...
