Where were those deleted photos backed up? On iCloud? If YES, then those photos are gone forever. If you use iCloud for Photos, then iCloud synchs your photos across all devices. When you add or delete a photo on one device then the photo is added/deleted on all devices and this also includes iCloud.


If you do not use iCloud for Photos AND have a backup created on your computer, before those photos were deleted, then you can 👉 restore your iPhone from that computer backup file.
