How to recover a photo on Instagram after deletion ?. Many Instagram users have asked a similar question. Of course, you can just publish the photo again, but this is not always convenient.
First of all, you need to take into account that the content that you delete from your page will still be stored on the server, and if other users have shared your post, the post will be visible in their account, even if you deleted it from yourself, even if your account will be deleted or disabled. Then the only way to delete the post completely is to ask other users to remove it from their account. By the way, Instagram can independently delete your posts if the moderators decide that they violate the rules of the social network. If you need to recover an accidentally deleted post, there are several ways to do this.
Basic ways to recover photos
There are many ways to recover an accidentally deleted photo. Including:
- Recovery from the "Drafts" section;
- Search for photos in the device storage;
- Recovery of photos from the archive of the application;
- Photo recovery using Google account;
- Photo recovery using the Internet archive;
- Using special programs for data recovery.
You can recover a deleted publication from any device: Android, IOS or Microsoft.
From the "Drafts" section
Instagram has one very convenient property - photos can be saved in the "Drafts" section and published whenever you want. To do this, you need to open the application and click on the button in the middle with the plus image and select the desired images in the gallery, after which you can apply the necessary filters to the photo and add a signature and hashtags. The next step - you just need to double-click on the "back" button, you will be prompted to save the post in drafts. Now you can post a photo at any time.
From gadget storage
When installing the application, it offers to save publications in the device memory. To see if this function works for you, go to your profile and find the item "Account" in its settings. Then you need to find the item "Original publications" and check the boxes next to the functions "Maintain original publications" and "Save published photos". In this case, all the photos and videos that you published will be saved on your phone in the gallery, in the "Instagram" folder, and you can find and publish them again.
Function "archive" in the mobile application
A few years ago, a very useful feature appeared on Instagram called "Archive". It replaces the usual trash can and helps to hide a post from the feed or restore it. Deleted posts can be kept in the archive until you clear it, and until then you can easily restore them. In order to find the photos saved in the archive, you need to go to your profile and click on 3 strips in the upper corner, all recently deleted publications will appear, you just have to select and restore the one you need.
Using a Google account
This method is the best solution for Android smartphone users. He will come to the rescue if you have deleted a photo not only from Instagram, but also from the memory of your device. Many people use Google Photos to store their images so as not to consume phone memory. All you need to do is set up a backup so that all your images are automatically uploaded to the server. Then you can enter the storage at any time, view and return the deleted photo.
Using the Internet Archive
If you recently deleted a post from your account, you can try to find it on previous versions of the page. Most sites provide this option. To do this, go to the website web.archive.org and enter the link to your Instagram in the search box. The site will display all available versions of the page. However, it is far from the fact that the version of the page you need has survived, so I would not call this method the most reliable, but it's still worth trying.
List of special programs
If none of the above methods helped you, then try using one of the programs for recovering deleted data. The most convenient applications are listed below. With their help, you can recover almost any photo if they were recently deleted.
