"My iPhone stopped responding after updating to the latest iOS. To make it work again, I decided to factory reset the device. However, I lost all the data on the device. What's worse, I don't have any backup. Can anyone help me get my data back?"

Is it Possible to Recover Data After Factory Reset

A factory reset is necessary to solve some iOS issues like application errors or system issues. Resetting and wiping a device can solve problems that cause the device to get stuck in a loop, appear sluggish or otherwise impair performance. However, a factory reset also leads to serious data loss since it means "Erase All Content and Settings".

In other words, a factory reset will completely wipe out your device, which makes data recovery hard for you. If you don't have a backup you made before, there is almost no chance for you to recover data. In fact, any of the iPhone data recovery tools cannot do you a favor.

But you can still have a try. You can use a free iOS data recovery tool to scan your device for lost data. If you find any, you can recover it to minimize data loss.
