@bartho There are many special features built into our smartphones. One of them is that the phone is capable of storing the data in the cloud so that the user can access it from other devices. You can set your phone to automatically upload your photos to the cloud, and sync that folder on the cloud to the folder on your phone . It is like getting a secondary storage where lost files still live.

So how do you retrieve deleted files from Android with Google backup?

There are two options actually. Before we discuss the steps, you need to take note that you must have a Google account and it must be enabled on your device prior to recovery. Google allows you to backup content, data, and settings in order for you to easily restore them to the same device or another Android device.
