Imported and edited photos all gone after switching phones

I'm experiencing issues with restoring and/or transfering all of my photo's to my new phone. 

 

Last week i switched phones from xiaomi redmi note 8 pro to the redmi note 13 pro 4g (both android) 

All of my unedited photo's where stored on my sd card and where also imported from that file location. I swapped sim and sd cards and installed the lightroom mobile app on my new phone, only to find out that all of my (+/- 1000) edited pictures where gone and the lightroom mobile was pretty much empty asside from 8 very old pictures. I assumed this must be caused by the app not being able to find the file locations or something. 

I also assumed by swapping the sd card back into my old phone that the photo's would still be accesible. Unfortunately i found out that the lightroom mobile library on my old phone was also empty after swapping my sd card back. 

Most of my work is exported but there where still about 200 edited photo's on there that had not been exported and all that work has now been lost. 

I also notice that the app is only using about 500mb of storage space on both phones which to me seems like an indication that all data has been lost. 

Any advice on what i could try to restore the files or prevent this from happening in the future? 

Kind regards, 

Jerno
