Recover Viber Message from iPhone Backup
If you have already backed up your Viber chat history to iCloud servers on your iPhone, either by manually starting a backup or setting up automatic backups every week or every month, then your deleted Viber message may be restored from backup.
Unlike Viber for Android, Viber for iPhone does not offer an in-app backup restore option. Therefore, to restore Viber backup from iCloud to iPhone, you will need to activate your Viber account first.
Step 1: Keep your iCloud account logged in on your iPhone.
Step 2: Log out of your Viber account by going to “Settings” → “General” → “iPhone Storage” → “Viber” → “Unload app” . Or uninstall and then reinstall Viber on your iPhone.
Step 3: Tap Viber. You will need to activate it by SMS or with a call to reconnect.
Step 4: After activation, Viber will prompt you to restore Viber content from your last backup.
Step 5: Tap “Restore”.
Disadvantages of iCloud / iTunes backup:
- Not all your Viber messages can be restored from a backup. Only text messages are included in the backup. Discussions, photos, and secret videos that have been deleted cannot be restored from backup.
- Only the most recent backup file can be restored. You may not be able to find your Viber messages that were deleted if the messages are not stored in the backup. For example, you cannot recover deleted Viber message last Friday if your Viber backup was last Wednesday.
- You need to download Viber again and log back into your account before you can restore your Viber backups.
