Losing photos on an iPhone can be a frustrating experience for many users. We often receive emails from users seeking help on how to recover their lost photos. This can occur for a variety of reasons, including accidentally deleting photos, losing photos during a recovery or upgrade process, experiencing issues with the iPhone turning on, having the device stolen, or encountering problems when trying to restore an iPhone backup.
In this article, we will discuss the most common situations in which iPhone users lose their photos, and provide some solutions to help you successfully recover your lost photos.
1. Recover deleted photos from iPhone
You can delete a single photo or vise or delete multiple photos and videos at once, when you accidentally deleted your photo or video, it goes to the Recently Deleted album. Go to Photos > Albums, and tap Recently Deleted in the Utilities section. Tap Select, select your photos or videos, then tap Recover to recover deleted photos from the Recently Deleted album.
It's important to note that anything in your Recently Deleted album remains there for only 30 days. After that, it will be permanently deleted from your iPhone. If you want to recover those deleted photos after 30 days, you should consider recovering them from a backup or iCloud Photos. The steps for recovering your photos from a backup or iCloud Photos are listed below.
2. Recover photos from old or corrupted iPhone backup
Most iPhone users have some old iPhone backups that come from different old iPhone models. Sometimes those old iPhone backups contain deleted iPhone photos. They cannot restore and overwrite all current iPhone data with old backup data. Or some old iPhone backups are corrupted and cannot be restored to their current iPhone device. They just need to export and recover some photos from the backup.
Here we recommend using Fone Rescue application, which supports extracting and recovering iPhone photos and other data from a normally or corrupted iPhone backup. Download and install Fone Rescue application on your Mac or PC.
