Accidentally deleted an important message on your iPhone and now you’re scrambling to get it back? Don’t worry, iOS 17 has got your back! With a few simple steps, you can retrieve those lost messages in no time. Let’s get started, shall we?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve accidentally deleted a text message on your iPhone and immediately regretted it? Well, with iOS 17, retrieving deleted messages has become easier than ever. Follow these steps and you’ll have your messages back in a jiffy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, open the Messages app on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you’re in the Messages app, you’ll see all your conversations. Don’t panic if you don’t see your deleted messages right away; we’re just getting started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next, tap on ‘Edit’ located in the top left corner of your screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By tapping ‘Edit’, you’re entering a mode that allows you to manage your messages in a more detailed way. This is where the magic happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After tapping edit, select ‘Show Recently Deleted’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
‘Show Recently Deleted’ is a new feature in iOS 17 that keeps a temporary folder of messages that have been deleted, giving you a chance to recover them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, choose the messages you want to recover by selecting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take your time choosing the messages you want to recover; make sure you’ve selected all the ones you need before moving on to the next step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, tap on ‘Recover’ in the bottom right corner to restore the selected messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Congratulations! By clicking ‘Recover’, you’ve just restored your deleted messages. They will now reappear in your main messages list as if they never left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After completing these steps, your deleted messages should now be back in your main chat list, ready for you to view or respond to as needed. It’s as simple as that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
