Hey all, the TLDR is I need instructions and advice on how to obtain deleted iPhone messages without an iCloud backup, and possibly without the iCloud password. I have my GF's permission. I suspect she has cheated on me due to drug issues and whatnot. I have her phone number and the passcode lock, but she won't give up the iCloud password, claiming she "forgot it." That's probably not true, but whatever. She is giving me access to her phone and letting me try to recover deleted messages; She's just making me work for it I guess. So, in short, I need advice on how to reinstate/recover deleted iPhone messages, but without any iCloud backup, and likely without the ability to download a 3rd party app to her phone. I can probably download a 3rd party app to my mac and plug her phone in, however. Long story is below:
My current girlfriend is an addict. We both are, but she is worse and has lied about it throughout our whole relationship. She's had a history of abuse in her early years, so I have given her leeway for lying about drugs (literally dozens of times and literally when catching her in the act), but I fear something more sinister was going on and has been throughout the relationship. She managed to pay for a significant heroin habit for a year and a half while unemployed. She claims she did this by doing favors for people, collecting unemployment, etc., but that doesn't explain the crazy amount of drugs she was doing every single day. She already showed me her phone where she has some screenshots that are suggestive of her getting paid for sex. She explains everything away as a huge misunderstanding though.
She has all the telltale signs of being a cheater. She gets very jealous and accuses me of cheating, she has random numbers in her phone that says "Hey girl" where there is no contact info for the person, or if there is contact info it's like the letter "C." One message in particular referenced work with "other girls" and yeah, I dk. It is a complete red flag factory and I just want to know what she has done behind my back. Many of the messages are in different area codes from her. She lives in podunk Indiana, and she has random "Hey" messages from all different area codes, including where I live in Chicago, but again, this is all a "misunderstanding."
She finally let me look through her phone yesterday, but it's always after she used the bathroom or something, removing whatever incriminating texts she has/has, I assume. After explaining that I understand what dope does to people, and I can possibly forgive her, she has finally let me use her phone and obtain deleted messages. Problem is, she "forgot" her iCloud password and it appears she has never backed up any of her messages.
This is not illegal, as she has given me permission, and I'll literally have access to the phone and access to her phone password. It just appears she is making me work to obtain the info, rather than just tell me what she has done. I have a pretty decent idea that is was money in exchange for sex, porn, or something else.
I'm wondering what are the easiest, best, etc solutions for recovering deleted text messages from an iphone? Again, I have her permission after telling her I will be understanding and potentially forgive some things as long as that part of her life is over. We are both working to get clean. I just need to know. I've had the gut feeling forever. I need to know for peace of mind.
Looking for advice on restoring iPhone messages. I have her phone password, phone number, and her permission. I just don't know how to go about it. Also, downloading a 3rd party app (on her phone) seems like it's not feasible since she "can't remember" her iCloud password, and she's also never done a backup. I can likely download a 3rd party app on my mac and plug her phone in though.
Any advice on recovering deleted iPhone messages would be very helpful and may aid in me making an incredibly important life decision. Your time, expertise, and advice would be most helpful, and is desperately needed.
Thank you.
