The recycle bin is one among the best inventions and one among the foremost used options in operating systems like Windows 10, an area that permits us to review all those files that we’ve previously deleted to revive them again or delete them permanently, something that It can save us from another mistake since it might not be the primary time that we delete something and that we regret it later.
However, in mobile operating systems the difficulty of file deletion doesn’t work exactly like that, and there’s no public recycle bin that we will access to manage all our deleted files.
Recently the people of XDA had access to an exclusive preview version of Android 12, which we told you about many of its new features, but now they need just discovered a replacement feature that you simply are getting to love: a public recycle bin.
Although from Android 11 Google began to implement a sort of hidden ashcan under a replacement API that allowed certain applications to delete the files by sending them there, it’s not exactly what we’ve in operating systems like Windows 10.
It was leaked a couple of months ago that Google was integrating a sort of recycle bin into its file explorer, but we’ve not heard from it again.
Everything seems to point that a universal recycle bin could come natively integrated into Android 12, which is that in XDA they need managing to enable access to the present recycle bin to manage it from the storage settings.
There are still many doubts about its operation, but it seems that replacement access to the recycle bin is going to be displayed within the Android 12 storage options. When clicking on this feature, we’ll be asked if we would like to empty it, but at the instant, it’s unknown if we will manage the files that are inside.
It remains to be seen if Google finally decides to incorporate the vaunted and long-awaited universal recycle bin in Android 12, and if so, we’ll see if it’s accessible via a shortcut or through the system’s storage options.
