How WhatsApp chats get deleted

Most often, WhatsApp chat history disappears:

1. After an accidental deletion, i.e. instead of “Add conversation” you clicked on “Delete chat.

This often happens not due to user fault, but because of the inconvenience of a touchscreen;

2. After reflashing a phone: all data stored in internal memory is lost irretrievably;

3. After changing a phone: you have to reinstall the messenger and, as a result, all messages are lost.

Restore deleted WhatsApp chats via cloud backup

If you have deleted chats accidentally, there’s a chance that the chat was present on your cloud backup.

Let’s say your Google Drive or iCloud backup took place at midnight and in the morning you accidentally deleted a chat.

The cloud backup still has the chat and you can restore it. Here’s how:

1. Uninstall WhatsApp from your Android smartphone or iPhone.

2. Reinstall WhatsApp and set it up with your phone number.

3. Once the app is set up, you will get a prompt asking you to restore messages from a cloud backup.

This backup would be from Google Drive on Android, and iCloud on iOS. Tap Restore.

4. This will bring back the messages that you had accidentally deleted.

Note that if you got a message after your most recent cloud backup and deleted it, there’s no way to recover it.
