How to retrieve the deleted Apple SMS?

Many Apple mobile phone users have stored some important information in SMS, such as loan vouchers of relatives and friends. If you accidentally delete it by yourself or your child, it will often be very annoying. In fact, there are two ways to recover these deleted messages. One method is to back up iPhone data in advance, and the other method is to scan and recover directly with data recovery software.

1. Use iTunes software to back up and restore deleted SMS messages on Apple's mobile phone.

A few days later, if you find yourself accidentally deleting an important message, reconnect your mobile phone to your computer and open the iTunes software. Then you can see on the software interface whether you have made a backup before (as shown in the red oval box below). If there is a backup, click the Restore Backup button and wait for it to be restored. All the data on the mobile phone will be restored to the previous state. However, it should be noted that during the period from the original backup to the current backup, the data generated on the mobile phone, including photos, videos, call records, SMS records, etc., will be erased.

Second, directly use data recovery software to retrieve the deleted Apple SMS.
