How do I retrieve deleted messages from iPhone?
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13
Did you back up your phone? Did you sync it to iCloud? If not deletions are just that, deleted.

Restore the backup to retrieve the messages that were present when the backup was created.

Yes phone backs up daily and is via iCloud . So how do I retrieve?
If you are using iCloud Syncing for Messages, your messages are not part of your back up. Once deleted, they are gone.
