As a data recovery specialist, I've seen various scenarios where people have accidentally performed a factory reset on their iPhones and are desperate to recover their precious data. While it's true that a factory reset erases all data and settings, there are still several methods that can be employed to attempt data recovery. Here's a comprehensive guide on how you might go about it:

### Initial Assessment
Firstly, it's crucial to assess the situation. If the device has been factory reset, it means all the user data has been wiped. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that the data is gone forever. Data recovery is often possible if the data hasn't been overwritten by new information.

### iCloud Backup
If the iPhone was set to automatically back up to iCloud, there's a good chance that a backup was created before the factory reset. To check this:
1. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups.
2. Look for a backup that was made before the reset.

If such a backup exists, you can restore your iPhone from this backup, which will bring back your data.

### iTunes/Finder Backup
Another common backup method is through iTunes (or Finder on macOS Catalina and later). If you have previously synced your iPhone with iTunes, there might be a backup available:
1. Open iTunes or Finder and connect your iPhone.
2. Go to the Summary tab and look for the backup section.
3. If a backup is found, you can restore your iPhone from this backup.

### Third-Party Software
If there are no backups available, third-party software like EaseUS MobiSaver can be a lifesaver. This software can scan your iPhone and potentially recover lost files. Here's how it generally works:
1. Download and install the software on your computer.
2. Connect your iPhone to the computer and launch the software.
3. Perform a complete scan of your iPhone.
4. Once the scan is complete, the software will display all the files it found.
5. You can preview these files and select the ones you want to recover.
6. Finally, click "Recover" to export the selected files to your computer.

### Professional Data Recovery Services
If the above methods fail, you might consider professional data recovery services. These services have specialized tools and expertise to recover data from devices that have been factory reset.

### Prevention for the Future
To prevent such situations in the future, it's advisable to regularly back up your iPhone to iCloud or iTunes/Finder. This ensures that you have a copy of your data that can be restored if anything goes wrong.

### Conclusion
While recovering data from a factory reset iPhone is challenging, it's not impossible. By exploring the options above, you increase your chances of getting your data back. Remember, the sooner you attempt recovery after the reset, the higher the chances of success, as the data is less likely to be overwritten.
