Hi! I accidentally deleted hundreds of pictures on my phone/iCloud to free up storage. It's been months and the photos are no longer in my recently deleted folder. They are still on my old phone when I charge it back up. How do I transfer these from the old phone to iCloud or google photo? I'm worried if I log in or plug into my MacBook the old phone will be updated with the latest iCloud and delete the photos off my old phone. Is it possible to recover the deleted pics via my old phone that still has them? Thanks!

Put your old phone on flight mode first. Just select all photos that you want to have on your new phone, then press share button and enter “Save to files” then go to some folder that’s liked to some app. Make a new folder called “deleted photos” or something and paste the photos there. Now, you can turn off flight mode. And connect your old phone to pc/ mac via cable and copy the “deleted photos” file to your pc/ mac through iTunes > Files App > respective app directory folder > deleted photos folder.
