意外删除是智能手机用户可能发生的最糟糕的事情之一。特别是如果您使用 iPhone 并且不小心最终删除了设备上的短信，那么从 iPhone 中恢复短信对于任何用户来说都有些麻烦。
如果您已经处于丢失或删除邮件的情况，您可能正在寻找恢复它们的方法。由于 iPhone 附带的所有限制，没有任何简单的解决方案可以帮助您取回所有已删除的消息。
但是，这并不是说根本没有方法可以在 iPhone 上恢复您的消息。确实有一些方法可以帮助您恢复消息，包括两种官方方法。这些方法中的每一种都有其优点和缺点，但至少你有一些东西可以尝试恢复你的文本。
使用 iTunes 备份恢复 iPhone 上已删除的短信(Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone Using An iTunes Backup)
如果您使用 iPhone 已经有一段时间了，您可能对 iTunes 备份很熟悉。iTunes 备份是存储在 iPhone 上的所有文件的完整备份。这些备份的好处是它们还包含您的短信的副本。
如果您在删除文本之前使用 iTunes 创建了设备的备份(created a backup of your device with iTunes)，您可以恢复备份，它会为您恢复已删除的短信。
但是，您应该注意一件事。当您在 iPhone 上恢复 iTunes 备份时，它会抹掉设备上的所有现有内容。然后它会恢复备份中包含的所有内容，包括您的手机消息。
如果您不介意回到创建备份的时间，并且您没有丢失手机当前数据的问题，这是在 iPhone 上恢复短信的最简单方法。
- 使用兼容的电缆将 iPhone 连接到计算机并启动iTunes应用程序。如果您使用的是 macOS Catalina，则需要使用Finder执行以下步骤。
- 当它打开时，单击顶部的Edit菜单并选择(Edit)Preferences 选项(Preferences)。它将打开 iTunes 的设置菜单。
- 在首选项屏幕上，找到显示设备(Devices)的选项卡并单击它。
- 设备(Devices)选项卡列出了您在计算机上使用 iTunes 备份的所有设备。在列表中找到您的设备和备份。然后检查备份名称旁边的日期，以确保它是在您删除邮件之前创建的。
- 一旦确认备份来自删除文本之前，请关闭首选项窗格。
- 单击(Click)应用程序中的 iPhone 图标，从左侧边栏中选择“摘要(Summary)”选项，然后单击右侧窗格中可用的“恢复备份”。(Restore Backup)
- 选择您要在 iPhone 上恢复的备份，然后点击恢复(Restore)。
它首先会擦除 iPhone 上的所有内容。然后它将开始从您选择的备份中恢复文件和其他数据。
备份完全恢复后，您会发现已删除的短信又回到了iPhone 上的“信息”应用程序中。(Messages)
恢复 iCloud 备份以恢复 iPhone 上已删除的短信(Restore An iCloud Backup To Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone)
iTunes 并不是人们用来备份 iPhone 的唯一方式。iCloud 也是许多用户为其基于 iOS 的设备（(create full backups of their iOS-based devices)包括 iPhone）创建完整备份的首选选项。如果这是保存 iPhone 备份的位置，那么您可以在 iPhone 上恢复这些备份之一并恢复您的短信。
再次提醒您，这将删除您设备上的所有数据。然后它将从您的备份恢复到您的 iPhone 中的所有内容，其中包括您丢失的短信。
如果您不想在此过程中丢失某些文件，请将它们复制到云存储或将它们传输到计算机，然后再执行以下过程。
- 在您的 iPhone 上，启动“设置”(Settings)应用并点击“通用(General)”，然后点击“重置(Reset)” 。
- 在“重置(Reset)”屏幕上，您会找到用于重置设备上各种设置的选项。您想找到显示删除所有内容和设置(Erase All Content and Settings)的选项并点击它。
- 等待(Wait)您的 iPhone 被完全擦除。完成后，开始设置。
- 当您在设置设备时到达“应用程序和数据”屏幕时，找到并点击(Apps & Data)“从 iCloud 备份恢复(Restore from iCloud Backup)”选项。
- 您需要从您的 iCloud 帐户中选择一个备份，它会在您的 iPhone 上恢复。
当备份恢复并且您在手机的主屏幕上时，启动消息(Messages)应用程序，您将看到所有已删除的短信都已恢复。
使用第三方应用程序在 iPhone 上恢复已删除的短信(Use Third-Party Apps To Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone)
如果您满足它们的最低要求，上述两种方法应该可以很好地完成工作。如果您在删除文本之前有备份，并且可以从手机中删除当前数据，那么这些是在 iPhone 上恢复消息的最简单方法。
但是，如果您是从未创建任何备份的人，或者您不希望丢失设备的当前数据，那么这些方法可能不适合您。
在您的情况下，更好的方法是使用市场上为您的 iPhone 提供的众多数据恢复应用程序之一。即使您没有任何过去的备份，其中许多应用程序也可以让您恢复短信。此外，这些应用程序不会强迫您在恢复消息之前抹掉您的 iPhone。
使用这些应用程序的唯一缺点是它们不能保证您的文件将被恢复。但是，如果您还没有任何其他方法来取回您的消息，那么值得尝试一下。
How To Recover Deleted Text Messages On iPhone
Accidentаl deletion is one of the wоrst things that can ever happen to a smartphone user. Especially if you use an iPhone and you accidentally end up deleting tеxt messаges on your device, recoverіng thе text messages from an iPhone is a bit too much of a hassle for any user.
If you’re already in a situation where you’ve lost or deleted your messages, you might be looking for ways to recover them. With all the restrictions that the iPhones come with it, there isn’t any straightforward solution to help you get back all of your deleted messages.
However, that’s not to say there are no methods at all to recover your messages on your iPhone. There are indeed some ways, including two official ones, to help you restore your messages. Each of these methods comes with its advantages and disadvantages but at least you have something to try and recover your texts.
Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone Using An iTunes Backup
If you’ve been using an iPhone for quite some time, you’re likely familiar with iTunes backups. An iTunes backup is a full backup of all of your files stored on your iPhone. The good thing about these backups is that they contain a copy of your text messages as well.
If you created a backup of your device with iTunes before deleting the texts, you can restore the backup and it’ll recover your deleted text messages for you.
However, there’s one thing you should be aware of. When you restore an iTunes backup on an iPhone, it erases all the existing content on the device. It then restores everything that your backup contains including your messages to your phone.
If you don’t mind going back in the time when your backup was created and you have no issues with losing your phone’s current data, this is the easiest way to recover text messages on an iPhone.
- Connect your iPhone to your computer using a compatible cable and launch the iTunes app. If you’re on macOS Catalina, you’ll need to use the Finder to do the below steps.
- When it opens, click on the Edit menu at the top and select the option that says Preferences. It’ll open the iTunes’ settings menu.
- On the preferences screen, find the tab that says Devices and click on it.
- The Devices tab lists out all the devices that you backup using iTunes on your computer. Find your device and backup in the list. Then check the date next to the backup name to ensure it was created before you deleted your messages.
- Once you confirm the backup is from before deleting the texts, close the preferences pane.
- Click on your iPhone icon in the app, select the Summary option from the left sidebar, and click on Restore Backup available on the right-hand side pane.
- Select the backup you’d like to restore on your iPhone and click on Restore.
It’ll first erase all the contents on your iPhone. Then it’ll begin to restore files and other data from your chosen backup.
When the backup is fully restored, you’ll find your deleted text messages are back in the Messages app on your iPhone.
Restore An iCloud Backup To Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone
iTunes isn’t the only way people use to make backups of their iPhones. iCloud is also a preferred option for many users to create full backups of their iOS-based devices including the iPhone. If this is where your iPhone backups are saved, then you can restore one of these backups on your iPhone and get your text messages recovered.
Again, please be warned that this will erase all the data on your device. It’ll then restore everything from your backup to your iPhone which would include your lost text messages.
If you have certain files that you don’t want to lose in the process, copy them to cloud storage or transfer them to a computer before you do the following procedure.
- On your iPhone, launch the Settings app and tap on General followed by Reset.
- On the Reset screen, you’ll find options to reset various settings on your device. You want to find the option that says Erase All Content and Settings and tap on it.
- Wait for your iPhone to be fully erased. When it’s done, start setting it up.
- When you reach the Apps & Data screen while setting up the device, find and tap on the option that says Restore from iCloud Backup.
- You’ll need to choose a backup from your iCloud account and it’ll be restored on your iPhone.
When the backup is restored and you’re on the main screen of your phone, launch the Messages app and you’ll see all of your deleted text messages are recovered.
Use Third-Party Apps To Recover Deleted Text Messages On An iPhone
The two methods described above should get the job done very well provided you meet their minimum requirements. If you have backups from before deleting texts and you’re fine with getting your current data removed from your phone, those are the easiest ways to recover messages on an iPhone.
However, if you’re someone who has never created any backups or you do not wish to lose the current data of your device, those methods may not be ideal for you.
In your case, a better approach would be to use one of the many data recovery apps available on the market for your iPhone. Many of these apps let you recover your text messages even if you don’t have any past backups. Also, these apps don’t force you to erase your iPhone before your messages can be recovered.
The only downside to using these apps is that they don’t guarantee that your files will be recovered. It’s worth trying them, though, if you don’t already have any other methods to get back your messages.
