How can I recover deleted photos from an iPhone?

Here are several methods you can try:

1. Restore from iCloud Backup:

If you have iCloud backups enabled and your photos were included in the backup, you can restore your iPhone to a previous backup:

1. Go to Settings on your iPhone.
2. Tap on your Apple ID at the top.
3. Select iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups.
4. Choose the relevant backup based on the date before you deleted the photos.
5. Tap Restore iPhone and follow the on-screen instructions.

This process will replace the current content on your iPhone with the content from the selected backup.

2. Restore from iTunes Backup:

If you regularly back up your iPhone using iTunes on a computer, you can restore your device using these steps:

1. Connect your iPhone to the computer.
2. Open iTunes.
3. Select your device when it appears in iTunes.
4. Choose the most relevant backup and click Restore Backup.

This will replace your current iPhone data with the content from the selected backup.

3. Recover from Recently Deleted Album:

Deleted photos on your iPhone are usually moved to the “Recently Deleted” album, where they stay for 30 days before being permanently deleted. Here’s how to check:

1. Open the Photos app.
2. Go to Albums at the bottom of the screen.
3. Look for the Recently Deleted album.
4. Tap on it and check if your deleted photos are there.
5. If you find the photos, select them, and tap Recover.

4. Check iCloud Photos:

If you have iCloud Photos enabled, your deleted photos might still be in your iCloud account. To check:

1. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos.
2. Make sure iCloud Photos is turned on.
3. Open the Photos app, and check if the deleted photos are there.

5. Use Third-Party Recovery Software:

There are third-party tools that claim to recover deleted photos directly from your iPhone, even if you don’t have a backup. However, be cautious when using these tools, as they might not always be reliable, and there is a risk of privacy and security issues.
