Can I recover deleted photos and videos using Sweep?

Once you delete a photo or video using Sweep, it will be moved to your device’s “Recently Deleted” folder, where it will remain for a set period (typically 30 days) before being permanently erased. During this time, you can recover the deleted files from the “Recently Deleted” folder if needed.
