In this tutorial, we will learn how to see recently deleted apps on Android. Sometimes we accidentally delete apps from our devices and later realize that we still need them.
Fortunately, Android provides a feature that allows us to view and restore recently deleted apps. Let’s dive into the steps below.
Step 1: Accessing the Play Store
To begin, open the Google Play Store app on your Android device. The Play Store is where you can find and download various applications for your phone or tablet.
Step 2: Opening the Menu
Once you have opened the Play Store, tap on the menu icon located in the top-left corner of the screen. This icon consists of three horizontal lines stacked on top of each other.
Step 3: Navigating to My Apps & Games
From the menu that appears, scroll down until you find “My Apps & Games.” Tap on this option to proceed.
Step 4: Switching to Library Tab
In the “My Apps & Games” section, you will see various tabs at the top of the screen. By default, you will be in the “Updates” tab. Swipe left or right until you reach the “Library” tab.
Step 5: Viewing Recently Deleted Apps
In the “Library” tab, you will find a list of all apps that are associated with your Google account but are not currently installed on your device. Scroll through this list to locate any recently deleted apps that you want to restore.
Note:
If an app is not listed in this section, it means that it has been permanently removed and cannot be restored using this method.
Step 6: Restoring the App
Once you have found the recently deleted app you want to restore, tap on it to open its Play Store page. On this page, you will find an “Install” button. Tap on this button to initiate the reinstallation process.
After a few moments, the app will be downloaded and installed back onto your device. You can then access it from your home screen or app drawer as usual.
Note:
If the app requires any additional permissions or updates, you may be prompted to grant them before the installation can be completed.
Conclusion
By following these simple steps, you can easily view and restore recently deleted apps on your Android device. This feature provided by the Google Play Store ensures that you have control over your installed applications and allows for easy recovery in case of accidental deletions.
Remember:
- The “Library” tab in the “My Apps & Games” section of the Play Store contains a list of all apps associated with your Google account but not currently installed on your device.
- If an app is not listed in the Library tab, it means that it has been permanently removed and cannot be restored.
