% podman-rmi(1)
## NAME
podman\-rmi - Removes one or more locally stored images
## SYNOPSIS
**podman rmi** [*options*] *image* [...]
**podman image rm** [*options*] *image* [...]
## DESCRIPTION
Removes one or more locally stored images.
Passing an argument _image_ deletes it, along with any of its dangling parent images. A dangling image is an image without a tag and without being referenced by another image.
Note: To delete an image from a remote registry, use the [**skopeo delete**](https://github.com/containers/skopeo/blob/main/docs/skopeo-delete.1.md) command. Some registries do not allow users to delete an image via a CLI remotely.
## OPTIONS
#### **--all**, **-a**
Remove all images in the local storage.
#### **--force**, **-f**
This option will cause podman to remove all containers that are using the image before removing the image from the system.
#### **--ignore**, **-i**
If a specified image does not exist in the local storage, ignore it and do not throw an error.
Remove an image by its short ID
```
$ podman rmi c0ed59d05ff7
```
Remove an image and its associated containers.
```
$ podman rmi --force imageID
```
Remove multiple images by their shortened IDs.
```
$ podman rmi c4dfb1609ee2 93fd78260bd1 c0ed59d05ff7
```
Remove all images and containers.
```
$ podman rmi -a -f
```
Remove an absent image with and without the `--ignore` flag.
```
$ podman rmi --ignore nothing
$ podman rmi nothing
Error: nothing: image not known
```
## Exit Status
**0** All specified images removed
**1** One of the specified images did not exist, and no other failures
**2** One of the specified images has child images or is being used by a container
**125** The command fails for any other reason
