How to Fix iPhone Camera Roll Not Showing All Photos

Is your iPhone Camera Roll missing photos you know should be there? Whether they’ve vanished after an update, a sync, or for no obvious reason, it’s a common (and frustrating) issue. Here’s how to troubleshoot and recover missing photos from your Camera Roll so you don’t lose your memories.

‍

CHECK THE “HIDDEN” AND “RECENTLY DELETED” ALBUMS

Your missing photos might just be out of sight:

• Open the Photos app and tap “Albums” 📁

• Scroll down to find the “Hidden” album under Utilities

• Also check “Recently Deleted”—images here stay for 30 days before permanent removal

‍

SYNC WITH ICLOUD PHOTOS

Sometimes, photos can disappear temporarily during iCloud syncs:

• Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos

• Make sure “iCloud Photos” is enabled ☁️

• Connect your device to Wi-Fi and power—photos may appear after a few minutes if they were syncing

‍

CHECK SCREEN TIME OR RESTRICTIONS

Screen Time restrictions can hide photos:

• Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions

• Tap “Photos” and make sure access is allowed 🔓

‍

SEARCH BY DATE OR KEYWORD

Maybe the photos are simply lost among thousands:

• Open Photos > “Search” tab

• Enter key terms, dates, or locations to filter results and easily locate missing images 🔍

‍

USE A PHOTO RECOVERY APP

If none of the above steps work, it might be time for a deeper scan:

• Download the Photo Recovery app

• Run a full device scan for deleted or lost images

• Preview the results and recover any photos you’re missing

‍

PREVENT FUTURE PHOTO LOSS

• Regularly backup your iPhone using iCloud or your computer 💾

• Avoid abrupt iOS updates—back up first

• Enable “Save to iCloud” and periodically check your albums for changes
