About this app

Scan for and recover deleted files from memory cards and internal storage on rooted devices.

The app uses rewarded video ads - restoration of any discovered file or data is completely free of charge. You can still buy the unlocker to remove all ads and enable background scanning.

Without root access, Undeleter can only scan app caches for images.

App caches can contain images that would not otherwise be discoverable: you may find photos that were shared with you on social media but you never opened, or lower quality copies of images you have now or have deleted in the past. They may also contain images that have been preloaded by your browser or other apps on your device - even images of people you don't know. They can be filtered out using "Hide extant files".

Deep scan heuristically scans for and recovers the following types of files: BMP, JPEG/JPG, PNG, MNG, JNG, GIF, MP4, AVI, MKV, MP3, OGG, OGM, WAV, FLAC, AMR, MP4A, PDF, SXD, SXI, SXC, SXW, ODT, ODG, ODS, ODP, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ZIP, JAR, APK, EPUB.

Data scanning is available for a select number of apps. Data will be recovered in the form of HTML files for WhatsApp and Viber, as third-party catalogs cannot be merged.

Shred/ secure delete - files found on free disk areas can be erased permanently in bulk using the Shred function. You can also use the system-wide Share menu to securely erase files directly through any other app, for example by opening the gallery, selecting a number of images, pressing the Share button and selecting Secure delete.

Permissions - all of these are necessary for various functions, this is not a time wasting game, its an app for adults that was written from the ground up to restore deleted data. There's no catch, no trick. Read the instructions, Google the terms if you don't understand them. You will get what you need if you pay attention to what you're doing.

You can check permission details below, where it says "App info" > "App permissions". Click on "See more" to examine all of them.

CONTACTS - needed for Google Drive and Dropbox upload, used to discover connected accounts

LOCATION - for ads, I don't use Admob any more, which would extrapolate your location without your permission regardless

I do not provide technical support beyond app updates. Crash logs are welcome unless you are using Xposed.

Ratings and reviews

Not enough control over the app. Can't specify what file types you are searching for. Can't specify whether to look on phone or SD card. Scans for an hour, shows a ton of results but user cant be sure of what was found. Just a really limited poorly thought out app. I'm sure it is perfect for one specific person with a very situation. Maybe some day that person will be lucky enough to stumble into this app and find it useful

Waste of time. Files were recovered but I had to scan it three times. The first time, it shut down on its own, the second time I didnt see the files I was looking for. Its also showing me photos in my phone, not what I deleted. Didnt help me at all. It wasnt all my photos, mostly downloads, no documents, so I'm giving up on it. Edit 2: "Restore deleted images, video, docs, music, SMS, call logs, WhatsApp and more!" Please remove this from description or edit it. It's incorrect.

Finds deleted files on the microSD card, but never finds any files on the internal phone memory. Have tried General Scan as well as Deep Scan a few times with the same results. I suspect that it may be my phone disk encryption causing the issue. SUGGESTION: Please add dark mode for display contrast. Four stars because the menu items are hard to read with the grey shaded text. Otherwise, good app.
