Learn how to perform iPhone Recovery Mode

The iPhone recovery mode is ideal for performing instant restores. During this process what basically happens is that the firmware is updated. By doing this, it is possible to solve complex problems that occur both on the phones, as well as on the rest of the Apple family of products.

What is iPhone recovery mode?

When we talk about the recovery process, we usually think of the iTunes logo with the USB cable but now it seems that in iOS 13 these changes: We downloaded and installed the first beta version of iOS 13 and discovered that this latest version, when the iPhone enters recovery mode, looks like this: computer icon and USB cable.

However, the meaning remains the same. It means the same message: You must connect to a computer/iTunes.

When do we need to use iPhone recovery mode?

1. It is normal that you do not know when you should resort to recovery mode, especially if you are a new Apple user. Thinking about this here we tell you when this method can save the life of your iPhone: When trying to update or restore your iPhone, iTunes does not detect it.
2. If the screen is stuck, blank or black if the apple logo appears and the phone simply does nothing else.
3. When you decide to jailbreak the phone. In this way, you avoid the restrictions that Apple imposes on users with this type of cell phone.
4. When errors arise with the iPhone software. This method is ideal to solve the damage.
5. In case you want to downgrade to the iOS version. Not always the new version is the solution to iPhone problems. If this is your reality, with the recovery mode you can return to your previous operating system.
6. If the goal is to factory restore iPhone, you should definitely use this procedure to achieve it successfully.

Advantages:

• If you have iTunes installed on your Mac or PC, you can follow the steps to enable recovery mode on your iPhone.
• You will be able to restore your iPhone to its factory settings and functions. Not only can you restore your operating system to factory settings, but you can also restore your emails, iMessages, music, pictures, and more if you have the backup.

Disadvantages:

• The success of restoring your iPhone to a previous state depends on how often you back up your iPhone. If you back up frequently, your phone will restore what was recently done, while without a backup, you will lose all your data.
• If you use iTunes to restore your iPhone, you may lose non-iTunes content, such as apps and music that you did not download or purchase from the App Store.
