You’re scrolling through the photos in your camera roll, your finger slips and it’s gone – the cherished photo is gone forever.
Before you panic, know that there may be a way to bring him back from the dead.
The best part? It works even if you accidentally deleted something days ago.
Perfect for those times when you realize, “Damn, I deleted the best photo I took of my dog/kid/myself that day.”
Many people have accidentally deleted the perfect photo, but there are several ways to get it back
Google images
Google Photos is one of the most forgiving apps for accidental deletions. The Undo button will usually flash on your screen for a few seconds after your mistake.
Any photos you delete will stay in your Trash folder for up to 60 days — as long as you enable Backup & Sync.
Dang, two whole months to change your mind!
● On your iPhone or Android device, open Google Photos.
● At the bottom, select Library > Trash.
● Touch and hold the photo you want to keep. Click Restore.
FYI: Even if you don’t enable Backup & Sync, there’s a good chance your photo will still be there for up to 30 days.
If you empty your Trash folder, you’re out of luck.
Apple pictures
Any photos you delete will appear in the Recently Deleted album. Whether you enable iCloud or not, you’ll have up to 30 days to restore them

Suppose you quit…
The cute picture of your dog/cat/baby is not in your Trash folder. It’s time to bring in the heavy hitter.
When all else fails, you can try a third-party tool.
Stellar Data Recovery is a popular option, but it’s not cheap.
The software starts at $29.99 for Android users and $39.99 for iPhone users.
It’s not the cheapest software out there — but it’s a safer alternative when compared to bad, intrusive software that claims to be free.
Here’s a quick step-by-step guide on how it works:
● Download Stellar Data Recovery on your computer.
● Connect your Android or iPhone via USB, then run the program.
● Choose the type of data you want to recover. In this case, photos.
● Select your Android or iPhone and tap Scan.
● Once finished, any recoverable photos will be displayed.
