WhatsApp Hack: How to read deleted messages
The italicized “This message has been removed” occasionally can’t help but stimulate a curious mind even though it’s usually just an error.
It’s difficult to find a WhatsApp user who hasn’t seen the message mentioned above, and numerous blogs and community forums have called for the Meta-owned firm to remove the feature from the app.
The only catch is that the function works with Android 11 and above, which, thankfully, most newer devices support.
How to use it:
– Go to “Settings” on your Android smartphone.
– Select “Apps and Notifications”, and after that, “Notifications”.
– Find and select “Notification History” and tap the button next to “Use Notification History”.
– After completing this same page, the menu will display a log of all notifications received by the device, including the line of text contained in the WhatsApp message before the sender deleted it.
Deleting iOS app
While it might sound risky, reading deleted WhatsApp messages on an iPhone is simple.
However, users must ensure that their WhatsApp messages are backed up to iCloud and can be restored.
How to do it:
– Delete the WhatsApp app from your iPhone and install it again from the App Store.
– Sign back into your account once installed.
– An option will then appear for chats to be restored from the back-up.
– Selecting this option will restore all WhatsApp messages, regardless of whether they were deleted.
Apps for iOS and Android
Both OS app stores feature scores of apps which can recover deleted WhatsApp messages from contacts. However, caution must be practised, particularly with downloads from the Google Play store, with millions of apps ridden with malware that could infect a device.
The apps will also probably come full of ads if not for a paid version, so they can, at times, become difficult to use.
