Apple has recently rolled out its latest iOS 18 update, introducing a new feature called the \u2018Recovered\u2019 album. This feature is designed to assist users in locating and restoring photos and videos that may have been lost or damaged. Let\u2019s take a closer look at what this new update has to offer:<\/p>\n
\u2013 The \u2018Recovered\u2019 album feature is available across iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia.
\n\u2013 It addresses various issues such as database corruption or instances where media fails to save correctly to the Photos library.
\n\u2013 Third-party apps with access to the Photos library could also inadvertently cause photos and videos to become lost or damaged.
\n\u2013 The new feature scans the device for recoverable media and consolidates them into the Recovered album.<\/p>\n
This new album works in conjunction with the existing \u2018Recently Deleted\u2019 album, enhancing the overall functionality of the Photos app. Here\u2019s a simple guide on how users can access the Recovered album in iOS 18:<\/p>\n
1. Open the Photos app: Simply navigate to the app from your home screen.
\n2. Locate the Utilities section: Scroll down until you find \u201cUtilities.\u201d
\n3. Tap on Recovered: Authenticate with Face ID or Touch ID for access.
\n4. Manage your media: Users have the option to either permanently delete items or restore them to their library.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s worth noting that the Recovered album will only be visible if there are lost or damaged photos or videos on your device. If no such media is found, the album won\u2019t appear as an option.<\/p>\n
The introduction of this feature comes after issues with iOS 17.5, where a database corruption bug caused previously deleted photos to resurface. Although Apple identified this bug as affecting a minimal number of users, this new feature aims to provide a more robust solution for all users.<\/p>\n
Stay tuned for more updates and enhancements from Apple as they continue to improve user experience and functionality across their devices.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
