iOS 18 gets a new album to recover photos

iOS 17.5 had one of the most significant memory errors regarding the Photos app. It involved the reappearance of images in the device’s gallery that had been deleted both from the device and from iCloud in some cases. Apple confirmed weeks later that this was a bug affecting a handful of users and a handful of images and videos. Since there is a possibility that a photo or video is lost or damaged during normal operation of the device

due to various issues: problems in the database, in the process of saving to the photo roll, improper processing of images by third-party applications, etc. All these actions can damage an image. Although this problem has been fixed in iOS 17.5.1, Apple took the opportunity to add a specific album to access these damaged images.

iOS 18 will therefore integrate an album of damaged images and videos that the user can recover. Therefore, only users with a certain type of damaged content will have this album, accessible via the “Utilities” section of the Photos app and authenticated later. Once inside, iOS 18 will offer the ability to recover and restore library contents or permanently delete them from the device.

Please note that this album, if available, will coexist with the album “Recently Deleted” since they are of totally different content and origins. In addition, Apple confirmed that this album will be available on iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia.
