How long do Disney PhotoPass photos stay on the app?

Disney PhotoPass photos, dining photos and attraction photos in your account will expire 45 days from the date the photo was taken. If you would like to extend the expiration date to 60 days from the date the photo was taken, you may purchase an Expiration Extension.



As of 2026, standard Disney PhotoPass photos and videos typically expire and are deleted 45 days from the date they were captured. This policy applies to both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. Once a photo expires, it is permanently removed from the Disney system and can no longer be viewed, purchased, or downloaded. It is essential for guests to download their favorite memories before this deadline. However, there are two ways to extend this window. First, guests can purchase a one-time 15-day extension for a fee, bringing the total availability to 60 days. Second, for Disneyland Resort guests with a qualifying Magic Key Pass, photos taken while the pass is active may stay in the account for up to 365 days. For Walt Disney World guests with the Memory Maker or certain Annual Passes, the 45-day rule remains the standard for most content. Disney does not provide permanent storage, so users are encouraged to save their digital content to their personal devices or cloud storage immediately after their vacation to avoid losing their holiday memories forever.
