How to recover a deleted contact? Mobile phone address book friend deleted how to restore

With the popularity of WeChat chat and WeChat calls, the demand for making phone calls is significantly lower than before. "But even though we rarely make phone calls nowadays, some friends may have many numbers stored in their phone directories, such as our parents or grandparents.". Due to infrequent phone calls, many mobile phone users occasionally delete some unimportant contact numbers. When deleting, they accidentally delete important contacts. How can I recover from deleting a friend from my phone's address book? How can I find a deleted mobile contact? Geekersoft Data Recovery recently summarized three tips for restoring friends in their phone's address book.

Method 1 Restore your deleted phone contacts on Google Web Drive

If I accidentally delete an important contact, how can I retrieve it? Many of your friends use Google Disk to back up their phone data. If you have your contacts backed up on your phone, it's easy to get back to them. Recovery with one click. Restore deleted mobile phone contacts on Google Web Disk in following steps:

Step 1 Open Google's online drive on your phone, and click on "Address Book Backup" under "My Tools" on the homepage.

Step 2 Enter the address book backup page, and you will see "Restore to the local machine". You can choose "Merge and de-duplicate the local and cloud contacts" or "Cloud contacts overwrite local".

Tips: If you choose to merge the local number and the cloud number, the local number and the number backed up on the cloud number will be stored on the mobile phone together. Select cloud contact to cover the local, and the cloud phone numbers will overwrite the number originally stored in the phone's address book.

Advantage: Quick and easy operation, as long as the contacts backed up to Google's network disk can be restored.

Disadvantage: If there is no backup, this method cannot be used.

Method 2 Restore the deleted phone address book on iCloud backup
