Dumpster Recycling Bin is a free app for Android devices designed to free up space and delete files that you no longer need. This app can also help you recover files that you deleted too.

When you delete an important file off your phone, you may feel the panic set in right away. Unlike computers that have a dedicated recycling bin that you can easily find, cell phones often have recycling bins hidden away. Before you give up all hope and assume that the file is gone forever, you can open this app and do a search to find where it went.

Doing a search lets the app check your recycling bin and track down the files most recently deleted. As cell phone files usually have similar names, finding the exact one you deleted can take some time. Dumpster Recycling Bin actually has a preview option that lets you open that file to see if it is the one that you need before you restore it. This keeps you from restoring dozens of files to find the right one.

After recovering files, the app will help you create new folders for storing photos, videos and other files relating to your most recent vacation, a party you threw or your kid's last game. The app lets you take photos you already have on your phone and send those files to other apps like What's App and Facebook, but you can also share files via Google or email. The drop down menu that you see on the screen also has a button for sending files directly to your recycling bin.

The temporary files that you pick up while surfing the web and other files that you download can eat up a lot of space, but you can automatically delete the files that you no longer need with this app. It has a built-in feature that lets you schedule a time in the future to delete all the files in your recycling bin. The app also comes with a lock screen that helps you increase your privacy. If you want to keep others from using your phone and going through your files, you can set up a pin code that no one else knows. Only those who know that pin code can unlock and use your phone. Dumpster Recycling Bin is one of the best mobile apps for recovering lost files from your phone.
