How to Restore Deleted SMS on your mobile device? (Part 2)

As I said in part 1(for Android) (https://goo.gl/6IaLUC), we are going to learn how to restore SMS and feel more secure by some setting or with help of some applications.

In 2nd part I am going to cover #iPhone devices:
1st way:
The best ever thing with apple and iOS devices are that they authorise mobile users to sync all their data from the old iPhone to new generation device in just minutes with help of iTune facility. 
With help of iTune you may have backup of (contacts, notes, calendars, text messages, settings and camera rolls) at anytime while connecting your smartphone to the computer. Incase if you mistakenly erased some of your text messages, not everything is lost because you may have a chance to recover them. In order to work with this method, the lost messages had to be on the device when the last synchronisation was made.

Simple guide to do this job:
1. Important to do before connecting device: First have to prevent the automated syncing of the program, for the time when you will connect your iPhone with the deleted messages. To do so, access iTunes, select “Preferences” and click on your device in Devices section, and then you have to check the “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.” from the option.
2. Now connect your phone via a USB cable to the system, so the device should appear in iTunes’ Devices list now.
3. Choose “File” on top and find the phone under “Devices”.
4. At last only click on “Restore Backup” and wait for the restoration process to finish.

2nd way:
To prevent this unfortunately events, the phone owner have to back up everything with iCloud and restore when something is accidentally deleted. 

Simple guide to do this job:
1. Go to the “iCloud” section under “Settings” and access “Storage & Backup”.
2. Now you have to check the “iCloud Backup” option and that’s all.
The backup will be save in iCloud account. 
3.Note: Before beginning the restoration process, go to iCloud settings and uncheck the “Text Messages option”, then A pop-up will appear and select ”Keep on My iPhone”.
4.Go to “Text Messages”, tap “Merge”, the deleted messages appear back, mixed up with your actual messages that weren’t saved onto iCloud.
