I used iShredder iOS on my iPhone (e.g., iPhone 13). After that, I accidentally restored a partially new backup. Can I recover my original data?

If you have already used iShredder™ to securely overwrite your data, that data is permanently deleted. iShredder™ uses internationally recognized deletion standards and military-grade algorithms trusted by governments, agencies, and millions of users worldwide.

Additionally, Apple utilizes a combination of robust hardware encryption (e.g., AES-256), a dedicated security chip (Secure Enclave), and sophisticated storage management in newer iPhones (such as the iPhone 13). This makes forensic data recovery attempts even more difficult. If your data has already been overwritten with iShredder™, it cannot be recovered using third-party tools.

If you still want to attempt recovery, please check if you have an older iCloud or iTunes backup that hasn’t been overwritten. A professional forensic service might be able to retrieve fragments in rare cases—however, the chances of success are typically extremely low. Please note that at Protectstar, we specialize in secure data deletion and do not offer any data recovery software.
