Hello, I accidentally deleted my entire messages conversation with my mom earlier this evening. Fortunately I also have a macbook pro and our conversation is still showing up in the messages app there.
Is there a way to retrieve/restore my messages so that I can see the whole convo on both my phone and my laptop?
I contacted Apple via chat and was told I need to restore from an iTunes or iCloud backup. The problem is that I don't actually back up my phone very often, so my most recent backup is probably 2 months old. While I know that's better than nothing, it isn't ideal.
Any help would be much appreciated!
As an aside: is there a bug in iOS? This is the second time in the past week I've done this when I meant to delete only one message (last time was a group convo that wasn't as important). It's quite possible that I'm just distracted/not paying attention, but thought I should check :)
