About this app

Looking for photos, videos or important files that are still available on your Android device?

File Recovery: Photo Restore helps you scan accessible media, review your results, restore supported items from Android Trash, and copy selected files to a folder you choose. Core scanning and file restore features run locally on your device.

PHOTO RECOVERY AND VIDEO RECOVERY

• Scan photos and videos available through Android MediaStore.
• Restore eligible photos and videos from Android Trash on supported devices.
• Review media thumbnails and file details before selecting items.
• Select multiple items for batch restore.
• Filter results by date range or file size.
• Sort files by date or size.

Recovery availability depends on your Android version, device, permissions and whether the item is still accessible.

FILE RECOVERY AND FILE RESTORE

• Scan folders or SD card locations selected through Android’s system folder picker.
• Find accessible documents and media files.
• Copy selected files to a recovery folder you choose.
• Keep a local history of successful restores.
• Open supported files with compatible apps before selecting them.

DUPLICATE PHOTO AND VIDEO CLEANER

Free up storage by finding exact duplicate media:

• Detect exact duplicate photos and videos.
• Verify matches using file size and SHA-256 content checks.
• Review duplicates in organized groups.
• See estimated reclaimable storage.
• Select duplicate copies and confirm deletion through Android.

SCREENSHOT AND STORAGE TOOLS

• Find screenshots from media Android allows the app to access.
• View available and total device storage.
• Check accessible photo and video storage totals.
• Quickly open screenshot and duplicate-media scans.

MESSAGE TOOLS

File Recovery also includes local tools for message-related content:

• View message notifications captured after Notification Access is enabled.
• Inspect an SMS backup XML file selected by you.
• Preview backup messages and export them to CSV.
• Find accessible chat media from supported app folders.

Message Tools cannot reconstruct deleted or encrypted chat databases. Notifications received before access was enabled may not be available.

PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE PROCESSING

• Core scans and restores work offline.
• No account is required for core recovery tools.
• Your photos, videos and selected backup files are not uploaded to a cloud service.
• Media access uses Android permissions.
• Folder and document access uses Android’s system picker.
• You remain in control of restore and delete actions.

IMPORTANT RECOVERY LIMITS

File Recovery is not a raw-disk or forensic data recovery tool. It cannot recover data that has been permanently erased, overwritten, removed by a factory reset, stored only in the cloud, or protected inside another app’s encrypted storage.

The app can restore eligible items that remain available through Android Trash and can find or copy files that Android still allows it to access. Results vary by device, Android version, storage provider and granted permissions.

Use File Recovery: Photo Restore to scan accessible media, restore eligible Trash items, copy important files, remove exact duplicate photos and videos, and manage recovery results
