How to Find Recently Deleted Apps in iPhone
Have you ever accidentally deleted an app from your iPhone and wished you could recover it? Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Many iPhone users have faced this issue at some point. In this article, we will guide you through the process of finding recently deleted apps on your iPhone. Whether you’re using an iPhone 6, iPhone 11, or the latest iPhone 13, the steps remain the same.
1. Use the App Library
The App Library is a feature introduced in iOS 13 that allows you to view all your apps in one place. To find recently deleted apps, follow these steps:
1. Open the App Library by swiping up from the bottom of the screen on any home page.
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen until you see the “Recently Deleted” section.
3. You will see a list of apps that you have deleted within the last 30 days. Tap on the “Edit” button in the top right corner.
4. To recover an app, tap the “Restore App” button next to the app you want to recover.
5. Confirm your selection by tapping “Restore” in the pop-up window.
2. Check the Recently Deleted Folder
If you have deleted an app from a specific home page, it might still be in the “Recently Deleted” folder. Here’s how to access it:
1. Tap and hold an app icon on the home screen until all the app icons start to wiggle.
2. Look for a “Recently Deleted” folder at the bottom of the screen.
3. Open the folder, and you will find the app you deleted.
4. Tap the “Delete” button to permanently remove the app from your iPhone, or tap “Undelete” to restore it to its original location.
3. Use a Third-Party App
If the above methods don’t work for you, you can try using a third-party app to recover your deleted apps. However, be cautious when downloading and using third-party apps, as they may contain malware or viruses. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Download a reputable third-party app from the App Store, such as Dr. Fone or iMyFone Umate Pro.
2. Open the app and select the “Recover” or “Deleted Apps” option.
3. Connect your iPhone to your computer and follow the on-screen instructions to scan your device.
4. Once the scan is complete, you will see a list of deleted apps. Select the app you want to recover and tap “Recover.”
Remember that the success of recovering a deleted app depends on various factors, such as the time elapsed since deletion and the storage space available on your iPhone. If you have backed up your iPhone using iCloud or iTunes, you can also restore your device to a previous backup and recover your deleted apps that way.
