Hi  Hypertia

Please note that you can only be able to retrieve your photos if you had backed up your gallery.

On your phone, please do the following:

1. From the home screen, swipe either up or down to access apps.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select Cloud and Accounts
4. Tap on Backup and Restore
5. Select Restore data

Kindly follow the below steps to activate cloud backup:

1.   From the home screen, swipe either up or down to access apps.
2.   Tap Gallery.
3.   Tap on the 3 dots on the upper right.
4.   Tap Settings.
5.   Tap Samsung account.
6.   Push Slider to de/activate.

Thank you

What if one has deleted back up in error, can you still retrieve the deleted images? After selecting restore data then it no longer gives you an option for your gallery but only calls, messages, calendar, settings etc. How do I get the gallery back on the list for me to restore data??
