Music is an indispensable part of our daily lives, and many HONOR phone users store a large number of favorite music files on their devices. However, accidental deletion, system crashes, wrong operations, or device malfunctions may lead to the loss of these precious music files. The good news is that you don't have to panic when facing such a situation; there are multiple reliable ways to recover deleted music files from HONOR phones. Whether you have backed up your data in advance or not, this article will provide you with detailed and operable solutions. Let's explore these methods one by one.

The Recycle Bin feature on HONOR phones is the simplest and most direct way to recover recently deleted files, including music. It temporarily stores deleted files for a certain period (usually 30 days), giving users a chance to retrieve them. This method is suitable for users who have not emptied the Recycle Bin and the deletion time is within the retention period.
Step 1. Open the File Manager app on your HONOR phone.
Step 2. Tap the "Menu" icon (three vertical dots) in the upper-right corner.
Step 3. Select "Recycle Bin" from the options.

Step 4. Browse through the deleted items to find your music files.
Step 5. Select the music files you want to recover and tap "Restore".
HONOR is a subsidiary of Huawei, and most HONOR phones are pre-installed with Huawei Cloud services. If you have enabled Huawei Cloud backup before the music files were deleted, you can easily restore the deleted music by syncing the backup. This method requires you to have logged in to your Huawei ID and enabled the relevant backup function in advance.

Step 2. Scroll down and tap on Huawei ID.
Step 3. Select "Cloud" to access your Huawei Cloud data.

Step 4. Tap "Restore" and choose the backup that contains your deleted music files.
Step 5. Follow the prompts to restore the music files to your phone.
HiSuite is an official PC software launched by Huawei for managing and backing up data on Huawei and HONOR phones. If you have used HiSuite to back up your HONOR phone's data (including music) to your computer before, you can use HiSuite to restore the deleted music files. This method is suitable for users who have a computer and have made a HiSuite backup.
Step 1. First, download and install the latest version of HiSuite on your Windows or Mac computer. You can download it from the official Huawei website.
Step 2. Connect your HONOR phone to the computer via USB cable.
Step 3. Launch HiSuite and click on "Restore".

Step 4. Select the backup that contains your deleted music files.
Step 5. Choose the files you want to recover and click "Restore".

Google Drive provides 15GB of free storage space for each user, which can be used to back up various types of files.
