If you have accidentally deleted a file on your Android device or want to recover a deleted file, you can check the Recently Deleted folder. The recently deleted folder is a feature introduced in Android 12 that works similarly to the iOS Recycle Bin or Trash. To access it, follow these steps:
1. Open the Google Photos app on your Android phone.
2. Click on the three horizontal lines on the top left corner of the app and select "Trash".
3. Here you will find all of the items that you have deleted within the last 30 days.
4. To restore an item, simply select it and click on the "Restore" button.
Keep in mind that the recently deleted feature is only available on devices running Android 12 and later. If you have an older Android device, you can still recover deleted files using third-party applications or services.
