Summary

Accidental deletion of photos occurs on various devices, including your iPad. If you want to recover deleted photos on your iPad, you will know how to do it from this guide.

Overview of iPad Photo Recovery

Among all possible reasons that cause data loss, accidental deletion could be the main factor. To recover deleted photos from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, there are actually various solutions for you.

Depending on whether you have a backup or not, you will need different tools to help you retrieve lost photos on the iPad. If you have a backup, you can use the corresponding software or service to recover photos. While if you don't have a backup available, using third-party data recovery software is necessary.

Read on and learn how can you perform iPad photo recovery successfully.

Recover Deleted Photos on iPad from Recently Deleted

The easiest way to recover deleted photos on iPad is to restore items from the Recently Deleted folder. As you may know, the Recently Deleted folder will keep photos and videos you delete for up to 40 days. Thus, as long as you haven't emptied the folder after deleting pictures from the iPad and the pictures are deleted within 40 days, you can easily get back lost photos (and videos) from the folder.

To recover photos on iPad (or iPhone) from Recently Deleted:

Step 1. Open the Photos app.

Step 2. Go to "Albums" > "Other Albums" and tap "Recently Deleted."

Step 3. Click "Select" in the top right corner of the screen and tap to choose photos and videos you want to recover.

Step 4. Tap "Recover" > "Recover Photos" to get these items back to your iPad (or iPhone).
