We will tell you how to easily and quickly restore data on a smartphone and tablet, extract the necessary information from a backup in the event of a loss or breakdown of a mobile device, and also return the operating system to a working state when it freezes.

Years of experience with computers have taught us that lost information can almost always be returned with the help of special programs. For smartphones and tablets, there are also simple recovery tools that anyone can learn to work with.

Recover data on iPhone, iPad and iPod

To recover data on an iOS device, you need to download and install the iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery program on your computer.

If you have doubts about the functionality of the program, it is recommended to use the free version, which will allow you to see the recovered data, but will not allow you to save it. If all the necessary information is found, then you can safely buy the full version.

The types of data available for recovery depend on the specific scenario. If you have an old iPhone 3GS / 4, iPad 1 or iPod touch, then regardless of whether you have an iCloud or iTunes backup, you can pull out:

If you have an iPhone 4s / 5 / 5s / 5c / 6/6 Plus / 6s / 6s Plus / SE, iPad 2 / Retina / mini / Air / Pro or iPod touch 5, then if you do not have an iCloud or iTunes backup, you can pull out the data highlighted in white:

If you have an iCloud or iTunes backup, grayed out data is added to them. You can only recover Facebook Messenger messages from your device.

Recovering data from a device

• Launch iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery.
• Select the item Recover from iOS Device.
• We connect the iOS device to the computer via USB.
• The program will detect the device, offer to select the types of data that need to be restored, and then start scanning.
• After the scan is completed, the detected data will be available for viewing and recovery.

Recovering data from iCloud backup

• Launch iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery.
• Select the item Recover from iCloud Backup File.
• We log in with our Apple ID.
• The program will offer to download the backup file and show its contents.
• We select the data to be restored.

Recovering data from iTunes backup

• Launch iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery.
• Select the item Recover from iTunes Backup File.
• We log in with our Apple ID.
• The program will prompt you to select a backup file to restore and show its contents.
• We select the data to be restored.

Returning iOS to a working state

In addition to data recovery, iPhone Data Recovery is able to return the operating system to a working state in cases where the device does not boot.

To restore the operating system to work, just connect the device to the computer, select the Fix iOS to Normal tab, click Start and wait for the process to complete. At the same time, user data remains completely intact.

As you can see, when you turn to the right tool, data recovery on an iOS device is not more difficult, and in many ways even easier than a similar procedure on other operating systems. Of course, not everyone will want to pay for the full version of the program, but the value of the information is generally difficult to assess, so everyone makes the decision to buy themselves based on the situation. In general, iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery has several objective advantages:

• The greatest possible ease of use. No complex commands in the console, no confusing menus and settings. The program does everything by itself.
• You don't need to install anything on your mobile device.
• Data safety. It's nice when, restoring one, the program does not violate the integrity of other information stored on the device.
• The program does not make any changes to the operating system of the device and does not leave traces of activity. If in the future you have to contact the service, manipulations with iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery will not affect the warranty in any way.
• Support for all types of data that can be of value to the user.

We sincerely hope that you never have to turn to data recovery programs and all your information will always remain with you, but if force majeure does happen, then iSkysoft iPhone Data Recovery will help.
