message access I'll try to make it short and sweet. I had to have my phone restored due to a password issue, causing me to find out the hard way that my phone hadn't been backed up since March. All of my texts beyond March 6th are wiped from my phone, BUT! They're still on my Apple Watch. I NEED to keep some of those messages, but I'm afraid if I update my watch, I will lose those messages. Is there a way to get those messages back onto my phone? I considered taking screenshots from my watch, but there would be hundreds by the time I was done. Even if there was a way to get the messages off of my watch to another device, that would be great! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Text message on Apple Watch to iphone I accidentally deleted the entire text history I had with a contact on my iphone. But, I notice the history is still contained on my Apple Watch. Is there a way to move, update, backup, transfer the data for the text for a contact on my Apple Watch, back to the iPhone? Apple Watch 6 and iPhone 12 ver 14.6.

Only from your backup if you have one and weren't syncing them to the cloud.
