How Do You Recover WhatsApp Messages?
Easy peasy! Just reinstall WhatsApp and verify your number. During setup, you'll be prompted to restore your chat history from a backup. Make sure you've enabled backups on Google Drive (Android) or iCloud (iPhone) before you lost the messages!

No backup? No recovery. Sorry, that's the cold, hard truth.
Trust me, I've been there. If you backed up your chats on Google Drive or iCloud, simply reinstall WhatsApp and it鈥檒l ask to restore from the last backup. Works like a charm!
If you accidentally deleted a message, check if you have a recent backup. In WhatsApp settings, go to 'Chats' > 'Chat backup' to see when the last backup was made. Restore from there!
In case you have a local backup (Android only), you can manually restore it by moving the backup file to your phone. It's a bit tricky but doable!
