Compared to the iPhone data recovery software, iTunes or Finder backup can solve your problem more quickly for you. Restoring deleted files from an iPhone via an iTunes or Finder backup is possible if you have a backup that was created before the files were deleted. Here's how it works and what you need to keep in mind:
Key Points:
- Restoring from a backup will overwrite your current data on the iPhone with the data from that backup.
- Only files included in the backup will be restored; if you didn't back up your data before deleting the files, this method won't recover the deleted files.
- It's a good idea to back up your current data separately before restoring an older backup, so you don't lose recent information.
Steps:
- Connect your iPhone to your computer.
- Open iTunes.
- Click on your device icon.
- Under the Summary tab, click Restore Backup.
- Choose the backup date/time before the files were deleted.
- Click Restore and wait for the process to finish.
In this way, you can recover deleted files from iPhone without having to download or install any iPhone data recovery software.
