Messages on your iPhone SE lost may caused by many reasons like storage limitation. If you don’t want to lost your messages, please backup your messages frequently( Three Ways to Backup Messages on iPhone 7/6s/6s Plus/6/6 Plus/5s/5).
But when you come up with the iPhone SE messages lost problem, what should you do? Is it possible to get the lost or deleted messages back on iPhone SE? Actually, there are several ways to retrieve lost messages on iPhone SE.
Retrieve Lost Messages on iPhone SE: Phone Provider
The first port of call is your phone provider. Some – although not all – will keep a record of your text messages, and you are entitled to access them. It may be as easy as logging in to your account online. For some it requires you to contact customer services. The answer may be no, but it costs nothing to ask, right?
Retrieve Lost Messages on iPhone SE: from iTunes Backup
This works only if you have backup text messages before they lost.
1. Connect your iPhone to the PC with which you sync it. iTunes should open (if not, open it manually).
2. You should see your iPhone in a box, top right corner. Select it.
3. Now choose ‘Restore backup’.
4. All the data you previously backed up will now replace the data on your phone. It will take a few minutes. As long as you haven’t backed up subsequent to deleting those text messages, they should now appear on your phone handset. (See also: Access iTunes backup to extract SMS messages for iPhone?)
Retrieve Lost Messages on iPhone SE: from iCloud Backup
If you did not have iTunes backup but had iCloud backup before lost your messages on iPhone SE, you could try to restore iCloud backup.
1. Login to iCloud with your Apple ID and password
2. Click on Text Messages (if it isn’t there your messages haven’t been backed up).
3. If it is there searched the messages to find the ones you need.
4. Now go to your iPhone and choose Settings, iCloud on your iPhone.
5. Turn off Text Messages (or ensure it is turned off). I know this sounds counter intuitive but stay with it.
