[Summary]: Wondering how to wipe out personal data or deleted files on iPhone X or iPhone XS? This article is going to show you a perfectly secure way to permanently erase data from iPhone XS(Max)/XR/X without any possibility of information leakages.

“I want to sell my iPhone XS, but there is some personal data on the phone, I am worried that this data can still be retrieved after the iPhone is factory restored. How can I wipe all personal data permanently before selling?” ASK Louise.

Some friends have the same situation as Louis. My friend introduced me to a software, iPhone Data Eraser, which perfectly erases personal data for me, such as contacts, messages, call logs, notes, emails, History and so on. In order to let you better understand this software, I will give a more detailed introduction as below.

Since deleting and restoring to factory default settings can not really delete the data on iPhone, what I want to recommend here is using the iPhone Data Eraser, which helps you permanently delete everything on iPhone/iPad or iPod, such as contacts, text messages, call logs, emails, account info, passwords, videos, photos, documents, etc. Besides, it adds a security feature that completely erases deleted files and you should note that after erasing your iPhone,no one can recover data back,after wiping,the data is lost permanently.

Why Choose iPhone Data Eraser:

– It allows you to clean up the garbage content so as to make your device working as quickly as a new one: delete and compress photos, remove junk or temporary files, delete large files and manage apps.
– It helps you erase all your data stored on iPhone, iPod or iPad within several clicks.
– It can erase your private data in completely, like photos, videos, contacts and messages, call logs, etc.
– The deleted files are actually not deleted, they are just invisible. This iPhone Data Easer makes your deleted files actually deleted.
– File types supported to erase: Call History, Messages, Photo & Video, Contacts, Cookis & History, Keyboard Cache, Note & Reminder, etc.
