Viewing Phone Call History
To view your iPhone's call history, you can access the recent call logs in the Phone app. This will show you the last 100 calls, but if you need to see more, you can use a tool like TouchCopy to view your complete iPhone call history, including older logs.
You can also check within specific apps, such as WhatsApp or Skype, for more detailed call history, as these logs may not appear in your iPhone's Recents list. For example, WhatsApp's call history lets you access around 200 call logs directly from the app.
If you're unable to find older call logs, it's possible they've been removed from your device, but you can try recovering them from a previous backup of your iPhone.

What Are Logs?
Logs are a record of your iPhone's activity, specifically when you make or receive a call. This entry is created every time you interact with your iPhone's phone app.
Each call log entry contains important information like the contact's name or number, time, date, duration, and whether the call was made, missed, or unanswered. This information is stored on your iPhone and can be accessed through the phone app.
The phone app displays your recent call history in the "Recents" tab, showing up to 100 entries. This can be a convenient way to view your call history, but keep in mind that it's limited to recent calls.
Here's what you can find in a call log entry:
- Contact's name or number
- Time
- Date
- Duration
- Call status (made, missed, or unanswered)
This information can be accessed by tapping the blue "i" icon next to the number in the "Recents" tab.
Viewing Old Data
If you need to access your iPhone's call history beyond the last 100 entries, you can use a tool like TouchCopy to view your complete call logs, including older records. This software allows you to see all the call history stored on your device, export, or print your call logs, and even recover deleted records.
Your iPhone stores up to 1000 call logs, but only displays the last 100 in the Phone app's Recents tab. To view older call history, you'll need to use a third-party tool or your carrier's call records.
To view your iPhone call history from the Phone app, open the Phone app, tap "Recents" at the bottom of the screen, and click the blue "i" icon next to the number for more details about a call. Keep in mind that the app displays only a limited number of recent calls.
If you're unable to find older call logs using a tool like TouchCopy, it's likely they've been removed from your device. However, there's still a chance they're saved in a previous backup of your iPhone.
Here are three ways to see complete old call history on iPhone with D-Back:
- Option 1: See deleted call history on iPhone directly from 1 month ago
- Option 2: Recover deleted call history from iCloud
- Option 3: Restore deleted call history from iTunes backup
You can also use iBackup Extractor to retrieve old or deleted iPhone call history. To do this, download iBackup Extractor on your PC or Mac, choose the backup that contains the call logs you want to recover, and open the "Call Logs" section in iBackup Extractor.
Don't forget that your iPhone keeps your data for 180 days before it's deleted if you stop using iCloud. This means you can still view your old call history on your iPhone for up to 6 months after you stop using iCloud.

Searching and Filtering
You can search call logs by date using the new search feature. This is a handy tool that allows you to view all call logs from a specific date, such as February 14th, 2024.
To search by date, simply type the date into the search bar, and you'll get a list of all call logs from that day.
You can also filter your call history by contact using iOS 18. This feature allows you to view all call logs for a specific person by searching for their name or number.
To do this, open the Phone app and tap Recents, then tap the Search bar at the top of the screen. Type the name or number of the contact whose call history you want to see, tap Search, and then tap See All to view all call logs related to that contact.
If you need to view more than 100 recent calls, you'll have to rely on your carrier's call records.

TouchCopy allows you to access call history from apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, and Skype.
Exporting your call logs is useful for professionals who need to monitor calls or anyone who wants to preserve their call history securely.
To export your call logs, you can use TouchCopy to save them as HTML, PDF, or CSV files.
You can also use TouchCopy to print out your call logs for a physical record.

Finding Deleted Calls
You can't directly recover deleted call history on your iPhone, except by restoring a backup, which might result in losing recent content. However, if you have a backup, you can retrieve your call history using a tool like iBackup Extractor.
To use iBackup Extractor, download it on your PC or Mac, choose the backup containing the call logs you want to recover, and open the "Call Logs" section.

For devices running iOS 13 and higher, encrypted backups are required for iBackup Extractor to access iPhone call logs. This means you'll need to create an encrypted backup before you can use the tool.
You can also check your iPhone's call history through iCloud, but this requires erasing all existing data on your iPhone and doesn't allow viewing call history before restoring the backup. Any recent calls not included in the backup will be lost.
Here are the steps to check your iPhone's call history through iCloud:
- Erase all existing data on your iPhone
- Restore the backup from iCloud
- Check the call history through iCloud
Note that using iCloud to check call history has some drawbacks. Make sure to save important files elsewhere before restoring the backup to avoid additional data loss.
