Restoring data from phone memory

Restoring data from the phone's memory may be necessary in case of deletion or loss of important information, such as photos, videos, contacts and messages. In this article, I will talk about various methods and tools for successful data recovery.

1. Backup: If you previously created a backup copy of your data on a cloud service (for example, Google Drive or iCloud), then simply connect your phone to the Internet and perform the recovery procedure from the backup.

2. Programs for restoring files: There are many software applications specially developed for scanning Android or iOS devices for deleted files. Some of them are Dr.Fone, iMobie PhoneRescue and DiskDigger for Android/iOS.

3. Connection via USB cable: You can use a computer of the corresponding operating system (Windows/Mac) to connect via USB cable to all available data on your storage device.
a) For Windows users:
– Open the explorer
- Click the right mouse button on the icon "This computer" ("My Computer")
– Select “Management”
– In the left panel, select “Disk devices” or “Disk space”
b) For Mac users:
– Open Finder
– Connect your iOS device to the computer using a USB cable.
– Find and right-click the iPhone/iPad icon in the Finder sidebar.

4. Seek professional help: If you cannot perform data recovery on your own, contact the specialists of a service center or company engaged in data recovery services. These experts have access to specialized tools and techniques for extracting information even in complex cases of data loss.

In any case, it is recommended to immediately stop using the phone after deleting the files before starting the procedures for possible recovery!
