I deleted 10K photos from Photos app through another app using `PHAssetChangeRequest.deleteAssets(assetsToDelete)` It took 20-30 mins to delete. The photos have been gone into the Recently Deleted folder in Albums. Then I pressed Recover All button. It didn't get any action. I tried 10-15 times and waited all night 8-10 hours. It didn't work. Now I cannot recover my photos from Recently Deleted and I have 28 days.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 12.1, null
Can you recover photos, if you select just one photo to recover and not "Recover All"?
Try to do it in small groups.
Are you using iCloud Photos Library? Then try to recover the photos from a different device, that is also syncing with iCloud Photos.
I can recover photos in small groups like 100 photos. But Remove All doesn't work. I have synced photos with another device(iPhone 6S Plus) using iCloud. I have been waiting for 15 minutes, nothing is changed.
I noticed several times, that deleting large amounts of photos at once is causing these problems.
This happened on iOS 11. Since then I have been careful to put never more than 500 photos at once into the Recently Deleted album and then I empty it immediately, before I trash more photos. So I do not know, if the same problem still persists on iOS 12. Which system do you have installed on your iPhone 6S Plus?
Keep recovering 100 photos at once to get all your photos put back. It will be tedious, but you have still 28 days to do this.
I tried with iOS 12.1 it was failed. After synced with another phone (iOS 12.0.1), I have pressed remove all and waited 1 hour. Nothing was changed. Then I've put the phone my desk at night. This morning, I checked the phone(iOS 12.0.1) and everything is recovered. For 10K photos to be recovered, it doesn't make sense to wait for a day. Anyway thank you for response. I recovered the photos but I think this is still an issue.
