Are Screenshots Permanently Deleted?
Screenshots are a great way to capture and share information quickly. However, if you’re wondering if screenshots are permanently deleted, the answer is yes.
When you delete a screenshot from your Android phone, it is moved to the “Recently Deleted” folder in the Gallery or Photos app. This folder stores the deleted screenshots for about 30 days. After that, the screenshots are permanently removed from the device.
It is important to note that the “Recently Deleted” folder does not store the screenshots forever. After 30 days, the screenshots are automatically deleted and cannot be recovered.
It is also important to note that the “Recently Deleted” folder is not a backup folder. If you delete a screenshot from the “Recently Deleted” folder, it is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
If you want to keep a screenshot permanently, you should save it to a cloud storage service such as Google Drive or Dropbox. This way, you can access the screenshot from any device and you won’t have to worry about it being permanently deleted.
In conclusion, screenshots are permanently deleted after 30 days in the “Recently Deleted” folder. If you want to keep a screenshot permanently, you should save it to a cloud storage service.
