Do Photo Editing Apps Retain Access to Deleted Photos?

I'm curious about how photo editing apps work when it comes to accessing your photos. If I've given an app full access to my camera reel and I delete some photos from my device, can the app still access those deleted photos? This isn't a strange question—I'm just trying to understand the logistics behind it!

This really depends on what the app does with your data. If they upload photos to their own servers, then even if you delete the local version, they could retain a copy. Just check the app's privacy policy to see how they handle your photos.

Take Adobe, for instance. They use your data to train their AI, so if you've stored anything with them, they might still have access to those files even if you delete them from your device.

Generally speaking, if you've deleted a photo from your device, the app shouldn't be able to access it anymore. Think about it—once a file is gone, how would it even reach it? But there’s a catch! If the app had uploaded a copy to their servers, they might still have it stored there even if you deleted it locally.
