   To unlock the phone, swipe the screen upwards

7. 7
   A dark gray bar appears with a message that says "Item moved to the bin"

   .

   This does not directly delete the photo. It moves it to a rubbish bin. There, it is stored and then periodically, every 60 days, that bin is emptied. At that point, all the contents of that bin are permanently deleted. We can delete things before that by going to the bin to delete things manually. We can also go to the bin and retrieve things. We can bring them back, or take them out of the bin and keep them. However, for all intents and purposes, this photo has now been deleted. It's been sent to the bin. It is important to know that if we want to, we can reclaim it, or we can permanently delete it.
