Restore Image (Super Easy) for Android

Product snapshot

Restore Image (Super Easy) is a free photo recovery app from AlpacaSoft designed to retrieve deleted images from your device. It focuses on JPG and PNG file types; if you need video recovery, AlpacaSoft also offers separate apps such as Deleted Video Recovery and Video Recovery - Restore All Deleted Videos.

Supported formats and key limitations

• Does not require root access or jailbreaking to operate.
• May fail to locate some deleted pictures — not every removed file is guaranteed to appear.
• Only restores JPG and PNG images; videos must be recovered with a different app.
• Frequently shows photos that were deleted only from internal storage (external or cloud-deleted items may be omitted).

How to recover a picture (simple steps)

1. Open the app and choose Search the image you want to restore.
2. Browse the list of deleted images the app finds.
3. Use the Display all of periods filter to narrow results by saved date (options include Within 1 month, 1–3 months ago, etc.).
4. Tap the image you want to recover and confirm restoration; recovered files are placed in Restored image.
5. If you change your mind, you can permanently delete images from the app.

Settings, add-ons and editing tools

• You can lower image quality and reduce the maximum number of images displayed (default 100, can be reduced to 20) to avoid crashes on low-memory devices.
• To edit metadata or enlarge images inside the app, AlpacaSoft provides companion tools such as Image Date Editor and Enlarge & Correct Image.
• Recovered images can be tapped to view or to modify their date (with the appropriate add-on).

Ads and payment options

• The free version contains ads, but they occupy a small portion of the screen and are not overly intrusive.
• If you prefer no advertisements, a one-time Donate & tip to developer purchase permanently removes ads (no recurring subscription required).

Final assessment

For casual users who are not comfortable with rooting or jailbreaking, Restore Image (Super Easy) offers a straightforward way to get back JPG and PNG photos with an easy-to-follow interface and basic date filtering. It isn’t perfect — some deleted images may not appear, and it tends to prioritize internal storage — but its simplicity and the option to remove ads with a one-time payment make it worth a try for many users.
