iPhone Data Recovery Solution: Quickly Recover Lost Data on Your iPhone

Loss of data is quite a common problem with smartphones today. No matter how careful you are, you might end up losing your smartphone data at some point in time or another. There can be nothing more frustrating than having all your photos, videos, and chats disappear all of a sudden.

iPhones use a highly advanced built-in NAND technology compared to removable storage like SD cards. So, if you lose data on your iPhone it can be quite difficult to retrieve that data back. However, it is not at all impossible to get the data that you lose from your iPhone. 

What Leads to Loss of iPhone Data?

There are various factors that can erase all your crucial data from your iPhone device. Therefore, before we get into the iPhone data recovery solution, let's have a look at some of the causes:

1.    One of the basic reasons for the loss of iPhone data is accidental deletion. You might end up deleting important data on your device unknowingly. Human error accounts for most of the data loss cases in smartphones and iPhones.

2.    Also, a power outage during a crucial iOS update on your iPhone can result in data loss. 

3.    In most iPhones, change the battery functions as a factory reset. So, if you are changing your battery without a necessary backup, your data will be wiped out instantly.

Retrieve Lost Data Through Unfailing iPhone Data Recovery Solution: 

You can’t essentially avoid data loss on your iPhone. But, thankfully, you can restore the lost data back to your device. There are iPhone data recovery tools using which you can conveniently get back the lost data on your iPhone.

There are three methods through which you can use for successfully restoring data on the iPhone. These are as follows:

•    Recover directly from iOS devices
•    Recover from iTunes backup files
•    Retrieve from iCloud backup files

Here, we will discuss each of the recovery processes in detail. 

Recover Directly from iOS devices

Through this particular method, you can retrieve the lost or erased files by directly scanning your iPhone. Here’s how you can restore back the data using this method:

Step 1

At first, download and install an iOS data recovery tool on your iPhone. Now, run the downloaded recovery software on your iPhone. Thereafter, connect your iPhone with a computer device with the help of a USB cable.

Step 2

Once you connect your iPhone, you will get a particular interface on the computer screen. In case you are using an iPhone 5 or other higher model, click directly on the ‘Start Scan’ button.

However, if you own older iPhone models, perform the following steps before starting the scanning process. Then, you will need these steps to enter the DFU mode:

1.    Press the ‘Start’ button on the interface that appears on the iOS data recovery tool.
2.    Now, press the ‘Power’ and the ‘Home’ button for at least 10 seconds. Thereafter, release the ‘Power’ button but keep the ‘Home’ button on hold.
3.    Once the software informs you that your device has entered the DFU mode, release the ‘Home’ button.

Thereafter, the recovery tool will automatically start to scan for the deleted data files on your device.

Step 3

When the scanning is completed, the recovery tool will categorically display all the lost data on the screen. You’ll then find the lost data in different categories such as contacts, messages, call history, camera roll, notes, reminders, calendars, etc.

If you want, you can click on them and see the full content in each of these categories. To recover the data from a particular category simply click on it and then, tap on the ‘Recover’ option.

Recover Through iTunes Backup

Backing up your data can effectively help you in restoring data that gets accidentally deleted or lost. So, if you sync your iPhone with your iTunes account and regularly backup your data, you can use it later to restore the lost data. However, with this method of recovery, you won’t be able to recover recent files.

To restore lost data from iTunes backup using data recovery software, perform the following steps:

Step 1

Connect your iPhone with a computer device and launch the iPhone data recovery tool. When the data recovery interface appears on the screen, you’ll be directed to the default ‘Recover from iOS device’ mode. Then, choose the ‘Recover from iTunes backup files’ option.

All the data that you had synced on your iTunes backup will automatically appear on the screen.

Step 2

From the displayed list choose the data that you need to extract from the backup files. Thereafter, click on the ‘Start Scan’ button to initiate iTunes backup extracting. Once the scan is completed, the data files in the iTunes backup will appear on the screen. You can then preview each of the data files separately.

Choose the data files that you wish to restore back on your iPhone and then click on the ‘Recover’ option.

Recover Through iCloud Data Backup

Using the iCloud data backup you can also retrieve the deleted data on your iPhone. So, if you back up your iPhone data on iCloud, you can use it later to restore deleted data files. However, you will need the help of an iOS data recovery tool for the purpose.

 Here’s how you can recover data through iCloud backup on your iPhone:

Step 1

Run the iOS data recovery tool on your device and choose the ‘Recover from iCloud Backup File’ option. Thereafter, sign in to your iCloud account after providing your Apple username and password.

Step 2

Once you sign in into iCloud you’ll find all the backup files displayed automatically on the screen. Then, select the specific file that you want to extract and then click on the ‘Download’ option. Now, choose the file type and click on the ‘Next’ option. This will enable the scanning of the selected iCloud backup files.

Step 3

When the scan is over, choose the particular category and check the relevant data present in it. Finally, choose the data that you wish to retrieve and click on the ‘Restore’ button.
