Alright, thanks everyone for the replies, way more than I expected, to be honest. I don’t think I want to experiment with multiple tools and risk messing something up, so I’ll just go ahead and try running a scan with Disk Drill for now. I’ll post an update here once I get any results (hopefully good ones).
P.S. I’m back with an update.
The scan actually finished much faster than I expected. People here were saying it might take all night, but in my case it was way quicker. And the good news are that I managed to recover all the files 🙌 I did have to buy the Pro version to complete the recovery, but the price was totally reasonable. If I hadn’t gotten those photos and videos back, I’m pretty sure the "cost" of my mom finding out would’ve been a lot higher 😅 Thanks again and have a great day!
