Help! My iPhone sunk to the bottom of the lake yesterday - there is no way to retrieve it. Until I am able to replace it during this pandemic; can anyone tell me how I can get ALL text messages I have missed with my ICloud account or on my Ipad which does not have a data plan.
Thanks in advance!!
iPhone 8, iOS 13
Did you have iCloud Syncing for Messages enabled prior to losing your phone? If so, and if your iPad is connected to the same Apple ID, you should see your iMessages.
SMS messages require a working phone. Contact your carrier to see if they offer a web based service for getting your SMS messages. If they do, it may or may not work. Often, you need to authenticate the service on your phone.
