How to prevent videos from deletion

We all know that it is quite easy to accidentally delete videos from your iPhone. Here are some tips how to prevent this:

  • Enable iCloud Photos:
    Use iCloud. By enabling iCloud Photos, you can automatically back up your videos to iCloud storage. This backup ensures that even if your device is lost, damaged, or replaced, your videos will be available on your new device or through the iCloud website.

    To enable iCloud Photos, go to Settings > *your name* > iCloud > Photos and turn on the iCloud Photos toggle switch. Make sure your iCloud storage has enough space to store your videos.

  • Back up your computer regularly:
    In addition to iCloud Photos, regularly backing up your iPhone videos to your computer provides an extra layer of security. You can back up iPhone to PC using CopyTrans Shelbee.

  • Lock your videos with a password or Face/Touch ID
    For an extra layer of protection, you can use third-party apps or the built-in Notes app to lock certain videos with your device’s password or Face ID/Touch ID authentication. This way, only authorized users can access and delete videos.

  • Turn off auto-delete in the Recently Deleted folder
    When you delete a video from your iPhone, it is moved to the “Recently Deleted” folder where it is stored for a certain amount of time before it is permanently deleted. To prevent accidental deletion from this folder, go to Photos > Albums > Recently Deleted, tap Select in the upper-right corner, and then tap Delete All to delete the video permanently.
