How to Recover a Deleted Photo on Your iPhone or iPad

Losing a good photo can be pretty traumatic, and accidentally deleting photos is easier to do than you might think. If you’ve accidentally deleted a photo on your iPhone, there are several ways you might be able to recover it. Let’s take a look.

Here, we’re going to run through some of the ways you might be able to recover a deleted photo, and while they may not all be specific to your situation, hopefully at least one will get your photo back where it belongs–in your photo library.

If your photo is there, tap it and then tap “Recover.”
