Hi, CuriousMB,

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you have some concerns regarding your videos and other content on your iPhone. We'd be happy to help!


If you're using iCloud Photos, pictures and videos you delete from your iPhone (or other Apple device) are placed into a Recently Deleted Folder. They stay in that folder until either you permanently delete them from the folder or 30 (thirty) days have passed: Delete photos on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support.


In either case, once the pictures and videos are permanently deleted, they are no longer accessible, unless you have a copy saved in another location.

Thanks Lindsay_B. I was a little worried because I just deleted permanently some videos from the recent delete album with personal or private content and my concern was; where all my pics and videos go after delete for ever or if this go somewhere and someone can get and use it on the wrong way. That’s all. But thank you for help that’s make me fell more secure.
