In addition to Android devices, you can use Google Drive to back up an iOS device. Step 5 (Optional): Back up an iOS device with Google Drive Plus, by using third-party software, you can access photos and files from one location instead of two separate ones. If you only lost a small amount of data, this is more efficient than doing a full reset. You can download individual items from your backup, like individual messages or contacts, without resetting your device.

Third-party apps can access your files in Google Drive and photos in Google Photos directly. Instead of using the Google One app, you can use a third-party application like AnyRecover, Disk Drill, or iBeesoft to back up and restore your data, or one of the best data recovery software platforms. Step 4 (Optional): Restore without resetting The only thing missing will be photos and videos, which you can now restore by following the instructions from step 1. Once the reset is complete, you should have a fully functional Android phone, current to your latest backup.
