If you have WhatsApp set up to automatically back up to Google Drive, this method may help you recover recently deleted WhatsApp messages. I personally used this method to recover an important conversation, and it was easier than you thought.
- First, you need to make sure your phone is connected to the Internet, preferably a stable Wi-Fi environment. Then, follow these steps:
- Uninstall WhatsApp: Uninstall the WhatsApp app on your phone. You can find WhatsApp in the application manager and select "Uninstall".
- Reinstall WhatsApp: Download and install WhatsApp again from the Google Play Store or App Store.
- Verify account: Open the newly installed WhatsApp and enter your mobile phone number for verification. This mobile phone number must be the same as the one you used to back up your messages.
- Restore data: After installation and verification, WhatsApp will automatically detect the backup file in Google Drive. If a backup is detected, the app will prompt you to restore it. Select "Restore" and you will see your previous chat history begin to be restored to your phone.
- Check messages: After the recovery process is complete, open WhatsApp to check whether the messages you need have been restored.
This method has successfully restored some important work-related messages that I accidentally deleted. As long as you have made a backup before, this method is quite reliable. Hope this helps you too!
