The only problem with the backup answer is that any user that uses the default iCloud backup will find that the backups are being constantly overwritten and they will not be able to have a backup that is from 30 days ago. Even backing up to a PC/Mac will have limits on how far back you can go. In addition, if they are using iCloud Photos, then the photos are not even in the backup file that is used to restore the device. It is great in case your device is damaged to be able to restore your device to where it was before that occurred, but for going back in time, there just is not an elegant solution.


There are other options to backup your valuable photos, but simply restoring from a backup is not the answer.
