Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone: Scan an iPhone or iTunes Backup for Lost Data
Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone is a $59 lifetime Windows program that scans a connected iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, or an iTunes backup, for deleted photos, messages, chats and more. It suits someone who has lost data and wants to see what can be found before paying, though its published compatibility list stops at iOS 16 and iPhone 14.
You open Messages and the conversation is gone, or a factory reset took the photos with it. The free scan tells you whether anything is left to get back, and that is the part worth trying first.

- Price: $59.00 for the Lifetime License, which covers 2 PCs

Before you buy
- Run the free scan on your own iPhone first. The compatibility list ends at iOS 16 and iPhone 14, and newer models and iOS releases are not named. If the scan cannot read your phone or shows nothing useful, there is no reason to pay.
- Stop using the phone. New data can overwrite what you hope to recover, so scan as soon as you can.
- Check Recently Deleted and your iCloud backups first. Those are free, and they often have what you lost.

Overview
The program has a left-hand strip with iDevice, iTunes and More Tools. Connect a device, press Scan, and the results fill a category tree with counts of deleted items next to totals, plus a preview pane. A filter limits the list to deleted items only.

Features
Recovery straight from the device
Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone scans a connected iPhone, iPad or iPod touch for existing and deleted items. The vendor pitches it for deletion, failed upgrades, jailbreak trouble and factory resets.
A scan in progress at 21 percent, with the data categories listed on the left.
Recovery from an iTunes backup
Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone can extract items from an iTunes backup on your PC, which helps when the phone is lost, stolen or too damaged to connect.
Preview by category before saving
Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone sorts results into photos, videos, voice memos, messages, WhatsApp, Kik, WeChat, contacts, call history, reminders, notes, bookmarks and calendar, with a filter for deleted items.
Scan results showing photo thumbnails, category counts and the Recover button.
Benefits
You find out whether recovery is possible before spending anything, and one lifetime payment covers later losses on your other devices too. Because the iTunes route needs no phone at all, an old backup on a PC can still pay off after the handset has gone.
Real-World Uses
- Pulling photos out of an iTunes backup after a phone was stolen.
- Looking for a deleted WhatsApp thread on an iPhone that still connects.
- Retrieving notes and contacts from an older iPad before passing it on.
- Checking an old iPhone on iOS 15 or 16 for photos deleted before it went into a drawer.
Who It's For, and Who Should Skip It
Good fit: owners of an iPhone 14 or earlier on iOS 16 or below, and anyone with an iTunes backup on a Windows PC.
Skip it if you own a current iPhone on a newer iOS release, unless the free scan shows it works, and if your files were never backed up and the phone was reset, since modern iPhone encryption makes that a poor bet for any tool. Mac owners should buy the separate Mac version.
Usage Guide
- Download and install the program on a Windows PC.
- Connect the device by cable and let it appear in the list, or switch to iTunes to choose a backup.
- Press Scan and leave the phone alone until it finishes.
- Tick Only display deleted items if the list is long, and preview what was found.
- Buy a license only if the preview shows what you need, then press Recover.
Where it falls short
- The published compatibility list stops at iOS 16 and iPhone 14 although the installer dates from January 2026, so support for later phones is unknown until you scan.
- The vendor still names iPhone 14 as the latest model, and its screenshots show iOS 12.
- Deleted data on recent iPhones is often unrecoverable by any software, so the claim of recovering from “all data loss situations” is broader than what is realistic.
- There are no independent reviews of this product to set against the vendor's own quotes.

Conclusion
Worth a free scan, and worth $59 only if that scan shows your files. Do Your Data Recovery for iPhone is a reasonable one-time purchase for iPhone 14 and earlier and for iTunes backups, and the preview before payment is the reason to try it. The main reason to look elsewhere is a compatibility list that has not moved past iOS 16, which matters if you own a recent iPhone.
