I want to restore my old photos because I can’t find them anymore.

Once deleted they will remain available to be restored for 30 days unless you delete them before that time from the Recently Deleted album where they will be removed immediately.

Beyond that you would need to have saved them in another location yourself. If you don't use iCloud Photos, an archived backup made with a computer before they were deleted could be used to restore those photos or you could save any photos to an external storage device, such as a USB stick where they will remain available. That would all need to be done prior to wanting to restore those photos though.

Recovering Lost iCloud Photos:

If not in “Recently Deleted”… If you have any other device signed into your same Apple Account, then power off all routers so that it does not connect to the Internet. Then, power on the device. Then, open the Photos app, and see if you can view them in your Library. For those not downloaded, you’d have to take screenshots of each one by screen capture. Go Here: Capture a Portion of the Screen - Apple Support

From a more general perspective…

Recovering Deleted Photos:

Loss of data is something you would have agreed to upon opening an Apple Account. So, if the following does not work, then they are gone. That's just the way it is :(

Troubleshooting Deleted Photos:

Five Tactics to Try:

A. Start here: If you're Missing Photos or Videos in the Photos app - Apple Support

B. Check Recently Deleted:

For iOS16 and later, you can check the Recently Deleted option on your iPhone.

C. Check iCloud, Directly:

For Photos: Go here, and see if they reside in iCloud: https://www.icloud.com/photos

D. Restore your iPhone from a Backup:

Have any backups of this iPhone prior to this occurrence? If so, restore your iPhone from one that has these photos (the most recent backup, ideally). If not, then take this as a learning experience, knowing to always back up your device for recovery purposes. Important: Back up you iPhone prior to performing this restoration, should anything go wrong from here on out.

E. Where Else to Check:

1. PC
2. PDA
3. eMail
4. Mac Device
5. Cloud Storage
6. Android Phone
7. USB Flash Drive
8. External Hard drive
9. Secure Digital Card
10. Compact Flash Card
