I would like to restore my text messages using iCloud. Is that possible?

I accidentally reset my iPhone and need the messages on it. Can I restore messages using iCloud?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

If you simply reset your device, your messages should populate again once you sign into iCloud on your device and turn on messages in iCloud. Learn more: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208532

Check Message App:

If messages was enabled on your iPhone along with your Apple computer, then check the Messages app on your Mac to see if it exists in it. You'd start up your Mac, not connecting to the Internet, and open the Massages app. Then proceed from there with retrieving it.


Important: Be certain you do not connect to the Internet while booting up, as syncing would delete it. So, power off your router to avoid the connection.
