Where Did My Recently Deleted Photos Folder Go?

If you are wondering where your recently deleted photos folder has gone, I can help guide you through finding it. The recently deleted photos folder is a feature in the Photo app on your device that allows you to recover accidentally deleted photos within a certain time frame.

To locate the recently deleted photos folder, follow these steps:

1. Launch the Photo app from the Home screen of your device. The Photo app is usually represented by a colorful flower-like icon.

2. Once you are in the Photo app, you will see various tabs at the bottom of the screen. Tap on the “Albums” tab. This tab is usually represented by a square icon with rounded corners.

3. Scroll down through the albums until you find the “Recently Deleted” album. This album contains all the photos that you have deleted within the past 30 days.

4. Tap on the “Recently Deleted” album to open it. Here, you will find all the photos that you have deleted recently. The photos in this album are not permanently deleted yet and can be restored if desired.

5. To recover a deleted photo, simply tap on the photo and then tap on the “Recover” button. The photo will be restored to its original location in your photo library.

It’s important to note that the recently deleted photos folder is a temporary storage for your deleted photos. After 30 days, the photos will be automatically removed from this folder and cannot be recovered. Therefore, if you want to keep a deleted photo, make sure to restore it from the recently deleted photos folder within this time frame.

If you are searching for your recently deleted photos folder, you can find it in the Photo app under the “Albums” tab. Scroll down to find the “Recently Deleted” album, where you can view and restore any photos that you have deleted within the past 30 days. Just remember to restore any desired photos before the 30-day period expires.
