Photos Missing From My Android Or From Google Photos...

[Joe Flacco]

Go in the "Files" app > "images"

See if you see the photos there. If not, then you probably deleted them.

Also look in device > DCIM > camera

They don't always sync with Images

Good luck man - I feel for you as this is one of our universal "appraiser nightmare scenarios". All the helpful suggestions have already been posted so I wish you luck in finding those pics in some phone directory or in the "trash" folder on your PC.

I'm with Terrell on this one - I use a camera, double check pics before I leave and don't delete them from the card til 6 months later.

Worst case scenario, just blame it on a software hiccup (its happened to EVERYONE) and - as PITA as it will be - redo the inspections. If they are old clients, they'll hopefully understand.

The pics are not saved in the camera app, they're saved to your phone. They may still be on your phone somewhere unless you deleted them

Just wasted more than an hour driving to the Spectrum phone store for advice. Rep was nice enough but not enthusiastic. I betcha Mr. Fernando knows exactly what I'm talking about customer servicee.

Thanks for consoling me. It's rather embarrasing to admit but after almost 24 hours searching for the lost photos, I was frustrated and even potentially suicidal more so than ever before in my life. Now why TF I never spent $100 on a digital camera doesn't make sense....until I realized that my cloth tape measure is tied back together in so many sections that I need to add or subtract from every diminision I report=-but unsure whether that requires a caveat to the ANSI compliance statement!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There not gone but you need a good tech guy not a phone sales guy. If you could delete them for good that easy the police and FBI would never have any evidence.

damn I never thought about that, even though my digital Spectrum TV system includes a few "Streaming Programs" with nothing but hundreds of gangster flicks....

It is very difficult to lose same photos on phone and computer at the same time. Likely they were never put on your computer. Have you tried any of the photo recovery apps in google play.

Galaxy A15? I'm surprised the thing hasn't exploded with 400 photos on it....get a real phone if you're going to do serious business with it.

Better yet, as others have mentioned. Get a point and shoot camera. That's the way to go.
