2026-08-23	Ke*****	Only shows pics that weren't deleted; the ones that do show up can be accessed by numerous free file explorer apps and recovered. The app could also use more search filters; e.g. by path/location, sort by (e.g. date modified)...

2026-08-22	So*****	Do not download the DiskDigger Pro app. Paying for this app is a complete waste of money as it fails to retrieve or download even a single photo. It is useless and fraudulent—please avoid downloading it.

2026-05-28	K *****	Thank god for this app. I had stupidly done Cut instead of Copy of my Pictures folder when transferring from mobile to PC, got catastrophic failure, PC probably thought it copied successfully and wiped my pictures folder. With DiskDigger basic I got them back and it didnt paywall me. This is why I'm buying DiskDigger Pro, showing my appreciation. Also screw Dr Fone. I tried that and its all super nicely advertised but it shows you all your deleted files and is like "yeah? theae yours? Pay up"
