Collection
Recently deleted
Everything you delete is recoverable for 30 days.
Binders, lists, decks, folders and cards you delete go to Recently deleted instead of vanishing. The screen is app-only: Profile → Data & Backups → Recently deleted. It needs an account and a connection.
Deleting on the web puts things here too, so a deletion made in a browser is restored from the app.
How it works
- It holds more than collections: binders, lists, decks, folders, individual cards, tags and watchlist items all pass through it.
- Deleted items stay for 30 days, then purge automatically.
- Restore and purge work per deletion batch — deleting a binder is one entry, and restoring it brings its cards back with it (individual cherry-picking inside a batch isn't a thing).
- Purge a batch manually if you want it gone now.
- Deleting part of a card is recoverable too. Delete the foil copy of a card you also hold in normal and the screen lists those copies — "1 copy · from binder …" — and restoring puts them back on the card, or brings the card back if it has gone in the meantime.
- It holds what you deleted, nothing else. Copies that left a collection because they went somewhere — moved into another binder or a deck, sold, consumed by a Build, re-filed under another condition — are not deletions and never appear here: restoring them would duplicate copies you still have.
Quotas
Deleting something frees its quota slot immediately — trash never counts against your limits. The quota check happens on restore instead: if restoring a binder would put a free account over its 3-binder limit, the restore is blocked until you make room (purge or delete something else) or upgrade to Silvane Pro.
