My iphone was either lost or stolen this past weekend and I am hoping to recover the photos I lost. Unfortunately, I did not backup my phone since June 2021 and my icloud storage was full at the time of losing it. Therefore, I only currently have photos on my laptop from June 2021 and before. Is there any way to regain access to photos from the last year?
Thank you!!
iPhone 12, iOS 15
Nope. Without them being synced or backed up to iCloud or on your laptop they are simply gone unless you find or recover your lost iPhone. Even if your iCloud account was full you still had the option to back your iPhone to your laptop’s storage drive. When you plug your iPhone into your laptop (Finder if it’s a Mac, iTunes if it’s a PC) you have two choices for backup, iCloud or local storage. Lesson learned.
