Delete a photo and get it back

Learn to delete a photo and get it back, in 3 short steps.

3 steps · about 3 minutes · practice it with SafePhone Pro

Step by step

  1. Open "Photos", then tap a photo.
  2. Tap "Delete" (the trash can at the bottom). A window asks "Move to the trash?": tap "Move to trash".
  3. Oops! Tap "Undo" at the bottom of the screen to get it back.

These steps are written for SafePhone, a pretend Android-style smartphone in your web browser. On your own smartphone, the buttons and menus may look a little different, but the idea is the same.

Practice it where nothing can break

SafePhone works like a real smartphone, but nothing you do goes anywhere. Try every button, make mistakes and start again.
