My girlfriend accidentally deleted a bunch of files on her phone and is currently freaking out about it, about to drop $50 for some program I'm pretty sure is a scam.
Does anyone know of any good, preferably free, data recovery software for android phones?
Please and thank you.

Aren't phones flash memory and thus unrecoverable?
I'd go to

Bumping for OP.
Idk of any data recovery software for android phones, but the information most certainly should be recoverable. I'm pretty sure (I'm probably completely wrong) whatever data is deleted just gets marked as re-writable and only appears to be removed. As new data comes in it may begin to overwrite deleted data.

That seems to be the case, as long as you don't restart or update or install or do anything you can sometimes get it back. There are lots of services that claim to be able to recover them, for a pretty hefty fee.

Unrecoverable don't waste the cash
HDDs have some recover potential, but that's because a 500gb HDD will have bout 40 gigs allocated.
