    I gather that when you delete something like a photo from an iPhone it's still recoverable. If you want it unrecoverable what would be the best thing to do? Delete it then fill the phone's memory completely?

    Do a restore

    then re-synch as a new phone, but turn off the sych photos part

    but guaranteed to sort the problem if the OP is concerned and given they have asked for advice I figure they are and want to make sure no one can gain access to the snaps on the phone.

    If you are jailbroken, this seems like the easiest option link

    Fair point DT. My point was only that there are sometimes easier options with minimal impact on a phone that the OP probably has set up to their liking and it can be a bit annoying to undo the effort put in initially ;)

    Oh, I almost forgot: @OP - Pics or GTFO :)
