The best recycle bin apps for Android

According to previous leaks, since the feature has not yet appeared in any of its beta releases, in Android 12 we might have a recycling bin native to the entire operating system. The same style that is appreciated in desktop operating systems, but on mobile. Because the truth is, it’s a missing feature.

It’s found in some proprietary layers, like Samsung’s, and also in apps like Google Photos, Files, or Instagram, but it’s definitely useful to have the one who does not stop monitoring what is deleted anywhere on the mobile. Therefore, we have decided to bring you a selection of what we consider to be the best recycle bin apps for Android.

CX File Explorer

We start the list of applications with CX File Explorer, as it was originally called before its translation into Spanish. In CX File Explorer we find a very complete file browser for mobile which includes, of course, a recycle bin. Although we also have all kinds of features, among others the possibility of connect to different clouds and our local storage systems, whether we have a NAS mounted in the office or at home. And the best part is, it’s completely free.

DiskDigger Pro File Recovery

To choose the second application, we could have opted for the free version of DiskDigger but the best features are activated with the paid version, which costs 3.39 dollars. Here we have an app which can scan our Android’s storage, also the microSD, to find deleted files like documents, photos, videos and more. What if our phone is rooted, the analysis goes even deeper.

Garbage bin

Here we come across a pure trash can app for the first time, a trash as such and not a feature of other more complete apps. Dumpster also has the choice of automatic cleaning which is responsible for scanning our phone for junk files to terminate it but the best thing is to prevent us from deleting something by mistake and not being able to get it back. And it’s absolutely free.

Recycle Bin: deleted video recovery, data recovery

And finally, at least for now, we’ll leave you with the trash or, in Spanish, ‘Trash can recycle’. We can get an idea of ​​its main functionality. Thanks to this trash app, we can recover deleted photos, videos and all kinds of files and it also has unnecessary file cleaner, a waste cleaner that can be programmed so that it does an automatic cleaning. An excellent application to carry installed and not to have accidents. Again, free.
