Well, actually, it's not my iPhone & my roommate is borrowing my laptop to delete his photo. I guess he "did it wrong" and he is now unable to delete the photos. We did create a Photostream album for his photos from the iPhone. It didn't work out so great. Not able to get most of the photos (certainly not the ones he wants to delete) onto the computer as he has many albums. Very confusing & broken experience :-( > You're literally doing it wrong. Great tactic to blame the user for a broken UX. In the end, many users don't care about iPhoto sync vs Photostreams vs whatever else is the latest & greatest from WWDC. Why is it the user's burden to keep up with Apple developer culture to delete a photo? I use an Android, which has a delete photo button on the device, btw ;-) The moral of the story is cross device collaboration is great in concept, however it still has to work with simplicity & convention within the "real world". People want to delete & edit media from the device, not some sort of media manager program on a laptop. The other challenge is things get geometrically more complicated with multiple devices. A simple light switch is simple compared to using an iPad to turn off the light. That is simpler than having a timing or sensor mechanism to control the environment.
