Recover brushes using the Files app

When using Procreate version 5.4 or above, you can recover brushes you have deleted from Procreate or from the Files app.

Open up Files from your iPad's Home Screen, then head to Locations on the left and tap on Recently Deleted.

In here, you can see 30 days' worth of files that you have deleted. Tap hold a file then tap Recover to bring it back, or tap More in the top right, then select multiple files and folders and tap Recover down the bottom to restore them to their original positions. Check out this Apple article for more information.

I deleted some default brushes, can I get them back?

Yup! Open up your Brushes interface, then tap on the title of your current library and tap 'Back to libraries' (or pinch inwards on Brushes).

Now tap 'Brush Libraries' at the top of the interface, and select 'Restore Procreate Libraries'.
