You cannot restore from a backup partially. You need to restore the entire iPhone.


Though restore from iTunes backup is an option but you need to restore the entire iPhone (only Notes restoration option does not exist) including all apps, Photos, Videos, Voice Memos, Notes on your iPhone etc...


The question is when did you backup on iTunes and when did you delete jw library app...Read on...


Let us assume...

Date1: Backup date

Date2: Message Deletion Date

Date3: Current Date / Restoration Date


Given that --> Date1 < Date2 < Date3 

  1. Risk of restoring on Date3:
    1. You may lose data between the Date1 & Date 3
    2. By default, iTunes creates incremental backup over the existing backup such that you only will have one backup per device on iTunes
    3. If you have taken another backup between Date2 and Date3, then the messages that had been deleted on the device on Date 2 are also deleted on the backup.
    4. If point no. 3 is true the Notes or lost completely.
