Recently deleted photos folder is missing after software update 13.4.1, I-phone 11 Max Pro.

Hi,


Iphone 11 Pro Max, software 13.4.1


I can NOT find my recently deleted pictures folder.

I have rebooted the phone, I have clicked the blue "See All" option, I see all my folders........but NOT the recently deleted photo folder.


I have deleted photos the last few days, it does not make a difference.



Cheers,

In that take a fresh random pic and try to delete it.


Probably you have synced those Photos from your Mac/PC though iTunes. Un-sync then they be gone.


Un-Sync photos to your device

  1. Connect your device to your Mac.
  2. You can connect your device using a USB or USB-C cable or using a Wi-Fi connection. To turn on Wi-Fi syncing, see Sync content between your Mac and iPhone or iPad over Wi-Fi.
  3. In the Finder  on your Mac, select the device in the Finder sidebar.
  4. Select Photos in the button bar.
  5. Note: When iCloud Photos is turned on, no photo syncing options appear when you select Photos in the button bar.
  6. Select “Sync Photos to your device from” tickbox, then choose Photos, Pictures or a folder from the pop-up menu.
  7. Uncheck Sync photos
  8. Click on Apply / Sync
