How to Recover Deleted Messages on iPhone.

Method 1: Recover from iCloud with iPhone

To recover deleted messages on iPhone without using a computer, you need a recent iCloud backup and be prepared for all data created after the last backup to be deleted. It is recommended to create a backup of the current file before starting the process.

• Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings ;
• Click the “Erase Now”button in the menu that appears;
• Go to the “Apps & Data”page and select the “Restore from iCloud Backup “ option ;
• Now select the backup containing the deleted messages and follow the wizard instructions to complete the recovery process.

It’s also worth noting that you can go to Settings  > Apple ID Profile > iCloud to enable Mail, Notes, and other options so you don’t lose them during the recovery process.

The second way is to use an iTunes backup.
