I just realized a bunch of messages I had on my phone X have been deleted! I backed my iPhone to iTunes. So where would my messages be? How can I restore them? Thanks in advance!
It is convenient to back up via iTunes if you are an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch user. However, keep in mind that the restore operation overwrites all the existing data on your device. And usually an iTunes backup couldn’t be completed or you can’t restore from it. Thus users are looking for more, they are asking for the advanced options the other apps are providing, like the selective data restoration or getting a preview before the users actually restore the files.
