It’s important to note that content in the Recently deleted folder will be automatically deleted 30 days later, or up to 24 hours for stories that aren’t in your stories archive. During those 30 days, you can access deleted content from your account in Recently deleted on the Instagram app for Android and iPhone and either restore it or permanently delete it.
If you don’t see the content that you want to restore in Recently deleted, the content might be older than 30 days or 24 hours for stories.
