Are you having trouble finding your recently deleted photos on your iPhone? If so, you’re not alone. Many iPhone users complain that their recently deleted photos are not showing up in the “Recently Deleted” folder on their iPhones. This can be frustrating, especially if you’re trying to recover a deleted photo or video.
The good news is that there are several ways to get around this issue and recover the photos or videos you’ve deleted. In this blog post, we’ll discuss why some recently deleted photos may not show up on your iPhone and how to get them back.
First of all, it’s important to understand why some recently deleted photos may not show up on your iPhone. The main reason is that the “Recently Deleted” folder only appears if you have upgraded Notes with iOS 9 or later and are using the same iCloud account across all devices. If this is not the case, then the “Recently Deleted” folder will not appear on your device.
If you do have upgraded Notes but still can’t find the “Recently Deleted” folder, it could be because the photo or video was moved to trash more than 60 days ago, or was moved to the trash and then emptied from trash. If this is the case, then unfortunately there is no way for you to restore it as it has been permanently removed from iCloud storage.
If you do have access to the “Recently Deleted” folder but still can’t find a particular photo or video, it could be because it was older than 30 days for regular posts or 24 hours for Stories when accessing Instagram under Recently Removed. In this case, again there is no way for you to recover it as it has been permanently removed from iCloud storage.
Fortunately, there are still ways for you to recover a recently deleted photo or video even if they don’t appear in either of these folders. One option is to try restoring a backup of your device which should include any images saved in iCloud Photos as long as they were included in the backup itself. Another option is to use third-party software such as iMyFone D-Back which can scan through your device and recover any data that has been lost due to accidental deletion, virus attack, factory reset, etc., including images and videos stored in iCloud Photos.
If you have followed all these steps but still can’t find a particular photo or video that has been recently deleted from your device, then unfortunately there is nothing else that can be done and the file has been permanently removed from iCloud storage with no way of restoring it back onto your device again.
Absence of Recently Deleted Folder on iPhone
If you are not using upgraded notes, then your iPhone will not have a “Recently Deleted” folder. This is because the “Recently Deleted” folder is only available for those who have upgraded their Notes app. To upgrade your Notes app, you need to make sure that all devices that use the same iCloud account have iOS 9 or later installed. Once this is done, you will be able to access the Recently Deleted folder on all devices with the updated Notes app.
Retrieving Recently Deleted Photos on an iPhone
If you are not able to find recently deleted photos on your iPhone, it is likely because the photos were removed from the Recently Deleted album in the Photos app. This album is accessible on any iOS device or Mac computer that has iCloud Photos enabled.

If you have included photos in your backups, you may be able to recover them from a backup if they are still present in the backup.
