Screenshots of the BBC Sounds app showing how to delete a download. The first shows the user swiping left until the bin icon shows, and the second shows the red and white 'x' icons next to each download after tapping on the edit or pencil icon

When swiping to delete, some devices may offer the chance to 'undo' the deletion. This will appear as a pop up and remain on screen for a very short time.

You can also:

  1. Tap Edit or the pencil icon in the top right corner
  2. Then tap X to delete individual downloads
