For retrieving deleted photos from iTunes backup, Any2Exract is the app I am using on my Windows 11 laptop. It is a third-party software tool designed to help users extract, view, and recover data from iTunes and iCloud backups of iPhones and iPads.
Unlike Appleās native tools (which only allow full restores), it lets you selectively export photos, messages, contacts, notes, call logs, app data, and more without needing to erase your device.
How to extract deleted photos from iPhone backup
- Install and launch the program.
- The software will automatically detect iTunes backups stored on your computer.
- If you want to extract from an iCloud backup, log in with your Apple ID.
- Choose the correct backup (check date & size) and click "Next".
- In the left menu, go to camera Roll (saved photos).
- Preview thumbnails and select the photos you want.
- Click "Export" (or "Recover" for deleted photos).
- Select a folder on your PC/Mac to save the photos.
- Open the exported folder to view your recovered iPhone photos.
Tip: If some photos are corrupted, try another backup or use "Deep Scan" (paid feature).
