Where are the recently deleted and hidden photo albums?

I have an iPhone 6 and recently updated to iOS 12. This has made several changes to photos including making it impossible to find the “recently deleted” album and the “hidden album.” I’m still able to hide photos but I’m unable to locate them after doing so.

Can you get to the “Albums” page by tapping the icon at bottom of screen, if so you can then manage what shown or hidden.

The “+’ top left adds additional albums that can store content as required, but I don’t mess with the default setup so can’t advise on best way to do this.


If you can’t get to the “Albums” page (ie no icon at bottom, only Photos, For You and Search), I would try a Forced Restart.
