WhatsApp, one of the most popular messaging services, has become an integral part of our daily lives. While it simplifies chatting and sharing media and documents, there are times when we accidentally delete important messages, leaving us unable to retrieve them.
If you’ve deleted crucial messages from a WhatsApp chat by selecting the ‘Delete for Me’ option, you might be wondering how to recover them. The good news is that you can easily restore these deleted chats by following a few simple steps.
How to Undo Deleted WhatsApp Messages
Follow these steps:
- Open the chat list or conversation on WhatsApp with the person or business from whom you want to retrieve messages.
- Long press on the messages you wish to delete to select them.
- Tap the bin icon at the top of the app and choose ‘Delete for Me.’
- A pop-up will appear at the bottom of the app, indicating the messages you have deleted for the next five seconds.
- Select ‘Undo.’
By following these steps, you will be able to undo the deletion of messages.
What You Need to Know
Make sure to select the ‘Undo’ option promptly to recover the messages; otherwise, you won’t be able to view those chats again. Note that if you select ‘Delete for Everyone,’ the ‘Undo’ option will not be available.
