Hi @HalfPintTitch Welcome to the Samsung Community. 
Do you not have any backups available from either cloud or local storage. It really is advisable to back up. https://www.androidauthority.com/best-android-backup-apps-and-other-ways-too-608014/
As far as free recovery apps go these are somewhat limited and as have never needed this option could not recommend a particular one (either free or paid). Reliabilty will vary and may not be successful. some information here though.https://drfone.wondershare.com/android-data-recovery.html
I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.
