If you are a person who has the tendency to forget every important stuff in their lives then the Reminders app is perfect for you. Whether you want to track your projects or groceries or when to pick up your laundries or anything else that you believe will possibly forget. With the reminders app you can track all the daily life tasks and you can set when and where to remind you anything.
All the reminders set by you on your phone is stored safely and the phone continues to notify you time to time. So, it is expected that you are quietly dependent on your phone. But if by any chance you lose all these reminders then your life will be a living mess. Practically, your whole daily schedule will be screwed up if you lose these reminders at all. So, if you have accidentally deleted or lost the reminders due to some malfunctions in software and hardware then it becomes a terrifying nightmare.
Stop have those exasperating and horrific moments because in this tutorial we will show you how to recover reminders from iPhone to save your life. That's indeed true that there are two ways to recover those reminders.
Option 1. Extract or Recover Reminders Using iCloud Backup
Luckily, with the latest iCloud version, it allows you to back up your entire phone including reminders. If you have recently synced your phone with iCloud then you can use the recent backup and restore reminders using it. Learn how to do that by reading the following manual.
Step 1. Go to iCloud.com and log into your iCloud.com with your Apple ID and password.
Step 3. Once logged in to your iCloud account, from the bottom of the page, click on "Advanced". Click on "Restore Calendars and Reminders".
Step 3. From the advanced part, you can see 4 options including Restore files, Restore Contacts, Restore Calendars and Reminders, and Restore Bookmarks. Here we select Restore Calendars and Reminders, and it will open a new Windows which dispalys all archive of calendars and reminders. Choose the one you need to restore.
That's all. You should be able to get back all the calendars and reminders using this method. But, this method is useless if you didn't back up reminders to iCloud. But that's nothing to worry about. If you have backed up reminders to your iTunes then use the next part to restore all deleted reminders.
Part 2. Analyze SQLite and Extract Reminders from iTunes Backup
Learn about SQLite:
Before extracting Reminders from iTunes backup, you'd better learn something about SQLite file, this is a backup file that crated by iTunes when you synced to your device with iTunes. A backup file will be created automatically and saved in the specified location in your computer. This is really a good method for backing up your data. But SQLite is an inaccessible file format, it means you can't access to backup files, let alone extract anything from it. It's easy to find iTunes backup location, but hard to access it.
If you want to extract the reminder from backup, you must first access SQLite and analyze everything on it.
