As already explained by others, Permanent Deletion is - as the term implies - a permanent and irreversible act.


However, if you had the foresight to create an iCloud or iTunes backup of your locally stored data prior to performing a permanent deletion of the locally stored data, you may be able to restore your iPad with the data within your backup:

Nope. You’re not on a twenty-year-old device with twenty-year-old security.


If you didn’t make copies, or backups that include these files, the files are gone.


That’s the whole point of permanent deletion. Gone.


If what you want to happen here was even feasible (it isn’t), the angry screaming of those that wanted reliable deletion could be heard from orbit.
