Nowadays mobile phones are considered to be a necessity. This is because cell phones provides us with the ability to communicate with our family, colleagues, friends etc. not only through calls and SMS but even through sending e-mails. The mobile phones are just like a mini computer, which can be connected to the Internet if configured. Nowadays cell phones can also be used as a camera, a video recorder, a radio and mp3 player, all in one. The main advantage of a mobile phone is that one can pass on vital information, send invitation, conduct business or make an appointment miles and miles away either by speech or text message.
Nowadays with the enhanced mobile technology, people tend to spend more time with smart mobile phones for entertainment, such as enjoy movies and music, take photos or make video records, reading books or even handle documents work that are stored on their memory card in mobile phones. However, to work on mobile devices is not as convenient as on the computers and it is much easier to make mistakes like deleting files by careless operations. So remember to make backups regularly for those vital files. Then what to do if the disaster strikes and without backups? Undoubtedly, a mobile device recovery software is urgently needed.
Lets see some of the main reasons that causes data loss from mobile phones

- Human Errors: You may accidentally delete file such as audio, video or image files from your cell phone’s memory card
