Tech: Recover Deleted Pictures On Your Andriod/IOS Device

We've all been over zealous at some point deleting pictures and we've accidentally deleted the precious pictures, we've accidentally deleted a whole album of vacation pictures or maybe your child somehow got his grubby little hands on your smartphone and wiped your camera roll clean

When it comes to technology, there is always a way to recover lost items.

One thing to keep in mind, though, is that once you've deleted the pictures or other files, it is safe to not use your device until the data is recovered. When a picture is deleted, it is not deleted permanently, but rather it just opens up space for more data. Any operation on your device then—including taking photos—can generate new data and overwrite that space, which would make lost data unrecoverable. 

Apple made photo-recovery easy with iOS 8, but when it comes to recovering deleted photos from Android phones and memory cards you'll need a little assistance from a third-party application. Though, some Android device now come with recovery features. E.g Gionee M6, when you delete a picture on that phone, it will be stored in a virtual memory space and after 7 days, it will then be permanently removed.

Whether you are using an iPhone or an Android phone, this guide will help you recover deleted photos from your devices.
