In the latest iOS 18 update, Apple has introduced a new feature that may come as a surprise to many users. The all-new Photos app now includes a “Recovered” album, designed to locate and showcase previously lost or damaged photos and videos still present on your device. This feature is available on iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia, automatically scanning for recoverable media upon updating. Instances of photo or video loss and damage can occur due to various reasons, including database corruption or mismanagement by third-party apps. The “Recovered” album will only appear if there are any lost or damaged media files on your device, providing users with the option to either permanently delete or restore them in just a few simple steps. This new feature aims to address issues like the database corruption bug in iOS 17.5, giving users more control over their digital content and an opportunity to retrieve lost memories.
