See WhatsApp messages & media deleted by the sender.

Messages & media are saved to a backup location so that you can access them even if the sender deletes them.

How it works:

  • Notification Listener logs new messages.
  • Media Observer watches for new images.

How to use:

  • Allow storage access.
  • Allow notification access (tap on the switch next to Notification Listener and follow the instructions).
  • Media Observer is turned on by default.

Backup Location

  • Images -> External Storage/WhatsDeleted/WhatsDeleted Images/

Permissions

  • Notification Access (to access new messages from notifications)
  • Storage

Points to note

  • Messages received directly in the chat window (and not in the notifications) won't be saved.
  • Images will be saved to the backup directory only if they were downloaded.
  • Clear the message log & image directory periodically to save storage space.
