How to Recover Deleted Photos on iPhone: The Complete Guide
Have you accidentally deleted important photos from your iPhone?
Don’t worry — you’re not alone. Whether it’s a cherished memory, a work document, or a favorite moment captured on camera, losing photos can feel devastating.
But here’s the good news:
You can recover deleted photos on your iPhone — even after permanent deletion.
In this complete guide, we’ll show you the easiest methods to recover your lost photos, step-by-step.
1. Recover Photos from the “Recently Deleted” Album
When you delete a photo on your iPhone, it doesn’t vanish immediately.
Instead, it moves to the Recently Deleted album and stays there for 30 days before being permanently removed.
Here’s how to recover from it:
- Open the Photos app.
- Scroll down and tap Recently Deleted under Albums.
- Find the photos you want to recover.
- Tap Select > Recover.
✅ Tip: Act quickly! After 30 days, photos are automatically deleted forever.
2. Recover Deleted Photos from iCloud Backup
If your photos have disappeared after 30 days, your next best option is to check your iCloud backups.
Steps:
- Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos.
- Make sure iCloud Photos is turned on.
- Visit iCloud.com > Photos > Recently Deleted.
If you’ve backed up recently, you may find older versions of your photos there.
⚠️ Warning: Restoring from iCloud might overwrite your current data if you perform a full device restore.
3. Use Photo Recovery App (Best for Permanent Deletion)
If the above methods don’t work, don’t panic.
