How to Read WhatsApp Messages Deleted by the Sender?

After we published a set of WhatsApp tips on CoreNetworkZ, one of the frequent questions we received was about reading the deleted WhatsApp messages.

Though WhatsApp has no official method to read the sender's deleted messages, we have some workarounds to read them.

This tutorial teaches the different methods to read a WhatsApp message deleted by the sender before you open it.



Can We Read WhatsApp Messages Deleted By The Sender?

A sender can delete a message in WhatsApp if he wishes. It is a good feature from the sender's point of view.

However, it puts the receiver in a confused state. The receiver may wonder what message was delivered but deleted before he read it.

Though WhatsApp has no feature to read the messages deleted by the sender, the receiver can still read them. Let us share some methods to recover the WhatsApp messages deleted by the sender.



Can I Recover Deleted Unread WhatsApp Message?

Another similar concern shared by a reader was the possibility of recovering an unread WhatsApp message deleted by the sender.


His comment says he forgot to check the WhatsApp for two days. After opening the App, he found that one of his friends had deleted a few messages sent for the past 24 hours. Now, his friend is not revealing about those messages. He wants to know how to retrieve them.


It is my response to him.

Yes, it is possible to recover deleted unread WhatsApp messages.

Is It Safe To Use Third-party Apps to Recover Deleted WhatsApp Messages By the Sender?

I understand the flaw in our method to recover deleted messages, as our trick works if you have a pre-configured Automatic backup feature.

Some readers suggested a few third-party Apps to recover deleted WhatsApp text messages. They claim they can recover all text chat messages removed by the sender.


So far, Team CoreNetworkZ has not tested them.


So, we cannot recommend any third-party Apps to recover a deleted WhatsApp chat message.
