Recovering Deleted Messages:


What to Consider:

A. Restore from Today's Backup:

Restore your iPhone from a backup of it that contains these messages, and you could recover them.


B. Check Messages App:

If messages was enabled on your iPhone along with your Apple computer, then check and see if the Messages app is enabled 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.


C.  Check your Carrier’s Site:

Log in to your Carrier’s site, seeing if you can view a history there. Doing so, I can see a call log going back 90 days —but not a text messages log.

hi, i want to help.


can you explain the situation and provide more details?


if youre talking about recovering a message in the messages app that was intentionally/accidently deleted, then, that is it.


one solution i can think of is making use of "messages in icloud", which is a feature apple provides to its users


more details about that here Use Messages in iCloud - Apple Support


the solution lies in the hopeful possibility in that you have another device with the deleted message which, upon enabling messages in icloud, both devices will match one another in the messages app after the upload is complete.


you want to be careful when it comes to deleting messages. let me know if there anything more i can do to help
