How to recover permanently deleted photos from Android phone

Using Photo Recovery - Restore Image is a straightforward way to attempt recover permanently deleted photos from Android, especially for recent deletions. It’s a lightweight, free mobile app that scans your device’s storage for residual image data, with no ads when used offline and no need for advanced technical skills.

Here's how it works in your own words: you install the app and grant it storage permission, then choose between a quick scan for recently deleted files or a deeper scan for older data. The app searches your device’s internal and external storage for leftover photo fragments, and once it finds recoverable images, you can preview them and select which ones to restore. Once restored, the photos are saved back to your device’s storage, letting you recover permanently deleted photos from Android with minimal effort.

This method is convenient because it’s a one-tap solution that doesn’t require a computer or root access, making it accessible to casual users.

It’s particularly useful if you accidentally deleted photos in the last few days and haven’t overwritten the storage with new files. Since it’s completely free to use and has no hidden fees, it’s a low-risk first step for basic recovery—though its success rate drops sharply on newer Android versions or if the data has been overwritten.
