Recover recently deleted files
You can try to recover recently deleted photos, videos or texts. But do so as soon as possible.
The more you use the phone, the more likely the file will be overwritten with new data.
1. Search for ‘file recovery’ in Play Store and install one of the apps.
2. Use the app to scan your phone.
3. If you can't recover recently deleted items, try connecting your phone to your computer with
a USB cable and using a desktop program for file recovery.
Tip: Back up your photos to the cloud so you won't lose them if you delete them from your
phone.
