If you accidentally deleted a photo or video on your iPhone or iPad, there’s an easy way to recover them.
According to a new video tutorial on the Apple Support YouTube channel, the company says you’ve got up to 30 days to get them back in a few easy steps.
First, open the Photos app and scroll down to the Utilities section. Tap Recently Deleted and then View Album. You’ll need to use Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode to continue.
Inside the album, you’ll see how many days each item has left before it’s permanently deleted. Tap Select, choose the photos or videos you want back, then tap the More button (three dots) and hit Recover. Tap Recover again to confirm.
Want to bring back everything? Just tap Select, then More, choose Recover All, and confirm. Everything you recover will go right back into your photo library (easy enough).
