Create & delete albums in the Flickr app

You can easily create albums of photos & videos uploaded to your account.  The albums can be organized by date, topic, event, or any other criteria you choose.

Albums contain links to the content in your Photostream. This allows you to add a single item to multiple albums without creating duplicates in your account.

These steps are for using the Flickr app on a mobile device. For information on using Flickr on a web browser, please find more information here: Create or delete an album in Flickr.
