For various reasons, you may accidentally delete videos on your iPhone. Then you may wonder: Can you recover permanently deleted videos from your iPhone? Actually, yes. You can first check the Recently Deleted album to see whether the deleted videos are there. If not, try other methods below to recover permanently deleted videos on iPhone with or without backup in minutes.
Yes, it is possible. Once a video is deleted from an iPhone, it first moves to the "Recently Deleted" folder and stays there for 30 days. During this period, the video can be recovered. However, if the 30 days have passed, the video will be permanently deleted. After the videos are cleared from the "Recently Deleted" album, they do not immediately disappear from the iPhone's storage but are marked as "available for overwriting". As long as the storage space occupied by these videos has not been overwritten by new data, there is a chance to recover them using specialized tools or backups. However, if the new data has already overwritten this space, the chances of recovery are significantly reduced.
Generally, the Photos app keeps the deleted videos and pictures on your iPhone in the Recently Deleted album for up to 30 days. If you find videos missing from your iPhone, check there first. There's a high chance that you can restore them to the video album from there.
Here is how to recover deleted videos from iPhone during 30 days from the Recently Deleted folder:
Step 1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone and click "Albums" at the bottom.
Step 2. Scroll down to select the "Recently Deleted" album and find the video you want to restore.
Step 3. Select the videos you want to restore and hit the "Recover" button.
