Losing important photos, messages, or contacts is stressful—especially when you need them back fast. Tenorshare iOS Data Recovery is designed to make recovery quick and user-friendly. This article walks through what the tool does, when to use it, and step-by-step instructions to recover deleted files in minutes.
What it can recover
- Photos & Videos
- Messages (SMS, iMessage) and attachments
- Contacts & Call history
- Notes & Voice memos
- WhatsApp, Viber, and other app data (where supported)
- App documents and other file types
When to use it
- You accidentally deleted files from your iPhone or iPad.
- An update or restore removed data.
- Device is lost and you have an iTunes/iCloud backup.
- You need to extract specific items from a backup without full restore.
Quick overview of recovery modes
- Recover from iOS device — scans the device directly for recently deleted data. Best when the device is functional and you act quickly.
- Recover from iTunes backup — extracts files from a local iTunes/Finder backup without restoring the whole backup to the device. Useful if you keep frequent computer backups.
- Recover from iCloud backup — downloads and extracts data from your iCloud backups. Useful if you don’t have a local backup.
Step-by-step: Recover deleted files in minutes (device scan)
- Download and install Tenorshare iOS Data Recovery on your Mac or PC.
- Launch the app and connect your iPhone/iPad via USB.
- Select Recover from iOS Device.
- Click Start Scan — the app will scan for deleted and existing data.
- When the scan finishes, use filters to locate the file types you need (Photos, Messages, Contacts, etc.).
- Preview items and tick the ones to recover.
- Click Recover and choose a location on your computer to save recovered files (or follow prompts to restore supported items back to the device).
Tip: Speed up successful recovery
- Stop using the device immediately after deletion to reduce data overwriting.
- Use the device scan first for fastest results; backups usually take longer to process.
- Ensure a stable USB connection and keep the app updated.
When device scan can’t find files
- Try Recover from iTunes Backup or Recover from iCloud Backup—they can retrieve older deleted items if a backup was made before deletion.
- If the device is physically damaged or not recognized, consider using Tenorshare’s device-repair tools first (if available) or seek professional hardware repair.

Final notes
