Text messages can sometimes be hard to keep track of and often vanish under mysterious circumstances, including mistaken deletion, a flawed iOS upgrade, a jailbreak fail, or another unfortunate circumstance. Regardless of how they were lost, though, you can restore missing text messages to your iPhone — most of the time. Show That’s because your iPhone saves all text message, MMS, and iMessage data in an SQLite database — an open-source, back-end utility built into all mobile phones (and most computers) and bundled into many popular apps. This function operates silently and automatically in the background. Contents
When you delete a message, the space gets transformed from allocated to unallocated while the message data remains intact. Over time, it will be overwritten by new messages flowing in. Before new data overwrites the old data, you can still recover those messages. The first thing to do is to stop messaging until after you retrieve your lost messages. Depending on how you back up your iPhone — with iCloud or directly to your computer — there are various methods you can use to recover lost texts, even after an iPhone reset. Third-party apps can also help under certain conditions. We’ll walk you through the various ways to recover text messages using iOS 13 and 14, which are identical. Restoring texts from an iCloud backupIf you have iCloud Backup enabled and your iPhone backs up on schedule, then your deleted texts should be available. The service backs up messages sent via iMessage, SMS, and MMS, but it requires the same SIM card as when you made the backup. Once your backup is restored, you should be able to access any texts that were on your phone when you first backed up. Step 1: Go to Settings > Name> iCloud > iCloud Backup. Step 2: Make sure iCloud Backup is enabled. Step 3: Erase your iPhone by going into Settings > General > Reset. Step 4: Choose Erase All Content and Settings. Step 5: You’ll be asked if you want to restore your iPhone from an iCloud Backup. Step 6: Choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Restoring texts from your Mac (with MacOS 10.15 Catalina)If you back up on your computer, you may have a series of backups already saved. To get started, first disable Find My iPhone on your handset. Tap Settings > Your Name > Find My > Find My iPhone and switch the toggle off. (Be prepared to type in your Apple ID password for it to turn off Find My iPhone.) Now, do the following: Step 1: Connect your phone to your computer via USB. Step 2: Open the Finder by double-clicking on your Hard Drive icon. Step 3: Under the Locations sidebar, look for your iPhone and click on it. Step 4: Click Manage Backups to view all the saved backups and choose which one you want to restore your messages. The backup should predate when you deleted the messages. Step 5: Click Restore iPhone. Consult your service providerIf that fails, contact your ISP’s customer service or tech support department. It’s possible — but not guaranteed — that your provider stored a backup of messages sent and received from your handset that is not yet overwritten. If so, you can likely arrange to access them. Try your ISP before resorting to a third-party app. Restoring texts with a third-party appAs a last resort, you can try a number of reputable third-party apps that allow you to retrieve lost text messages from your iPhone.
