How can I recover an iPhone accidentally deleted voicemail?

I recently faced a frustrating issue where I accidentally deleted an important voicemail from my iPhone. It was a message that I really needed to keep, but in my rush to clear out my inbox, I mistakenly deleted it. I didn’t realize the mistake until after it was gone, and now I have no idea how to get it back. It feels like I’ve lost a vital piece of information, and I’m worried that I might not be able to retrieve it. I’ve been searching for ways to recover this voicemail but haven’t had much luck. I’m hoping there’s a method or tool that can help me restore it. Has anyone else dealt with this and found a successful way to recover a deleted voicemail on an iPhone?

I had the same worry when I deleted a voicemail by mistake. I tried calling my carrier to see if they could help, and they were able to restore the voicemail. Here’s what I recommend:

  1. Contact your mobile carrier’s customer support.
  2. Explain that you’ve accidentally deleted an important voicemail and need assistance to recover it.
  3. They may have backups or other recovery methods specific to your voicemail account.

Carriers often keep backups of voicemails for a certain period, so it’s worth asking them. It can be a straightforward and surprisingly effective approach.

I recently faced this same issue and I talked to Apple Support for guidance. Here’s the process they recommended:

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on your name at the top of the screen.
  3. Go to iCloud, then “Manage Storage,” and check your iCloud backups.
  4. If you see a backup that predates your voicemail deletion, consider restoring your iPhone to this backup.

Be aware that restoring from an iCloud backup also restores your device to its state at the time of that backup, which means you could lose data created after the backup date.

I’ve been in a similar situation before, and my success came from using third-party recovery software. Here’s what I did:

  1. Downloaded a reputable data recovery software compatible with iPhone (for example, Dr.Fone, iMobie PhoneRescue, or Tenorshare UltData).
  2. Installed the software on my computer and connected the iPhone via USB.
  3. Launched the software, followed the prompts to scan the iPhone for deleted data.
  4. Located the deleted voicemail in the search results and restored it.

Although some of these tools might not be free, they can be incredibly effective in recovering lost voicemails when built-in methods fail.

I understand how stressful losing an important voicemail can be. If the voicemail isn’t in the “Deleted Messages” folder, you might want to check if you have any recent backups from iTunes or iCloud. Here’s how you can check:

  1. Connect your iPhone to the computer with which you sync and back up your device.
  2. Launch iTunes (or Finder on macOS Catalina and onward).
  3. Select your iPhone when it appears in iTunes/Finder.
  4. Click on “Restore Backup” and choose the most recent backup that should contain your deleted voicemail.

Be mindful that restoring a backup will overwrite current data on your device. If you periodically back up your device, this might be a viable option.

To recover an accidentally deleted voicemail on an iPhone, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Phone app.
  2. Tap on the Voicemail tab at the bottom.
  3. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and look for “Deleted Messages.” Tap on it.
  4. You’ll see a list of deleted voicemails. Find the voicemail you need to recover.
  5. Tap on the voicemail and then tap the “Undelete” option.

This method is the quickest way to check if the voicemail is still accessible. If it’s in the Deleted Messages section, it’s easy to restore it right back to your inbox.
