Hey guys,
Yesterday I decided to restore my iPhone 5s from iTunes backup because I barely had any free space left on my phone and whenever I did this procedure it freed up atleast a few GB of space on my phone. So I made a normal iTunes backup on my PC, wiped the iPhone once the backup finished and then restored it from the backup.
I did this many times and never came across any problems but this time I noticed that after restoring the iPhone, hundreds of photos seemingly disappeared. The photos were definitely still there when I made the backup, maybe I accidentally told it not to backup the photos on my iPhone though if that is even possible? I also noticed that some of my photo albums, for example the screenshot album are nowhere to be found. Hundreds of my photos from 2016-2018 are gone,now the latest photos on my phone are from 2 weeks ago.
Is there any way I can get those photos back? Some of them were really important memories to me and I really can't imagine losing them.
EDIT: If it helps,it seems that all the photos that are left on my phone are the ones that were sent to me/that I sent to someone. Most photos that I took with the camera or screenshots are gone.
