You can try restoring your messages from a backup! WhatsApp automatically creates backups on your local storage and, if enabled, on Google Drive or iCloud. Just uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp, then follow the prompts to restore from the backup.

Honestly, if you didn't have backups enabled, it's game over for those messages. Sorry!

Been there, done that! Just reinstall WhatsApp and use the same phone number. When it prompts, choose to restore from the backup. Worked for me, hope it does for you too!

If your messages were recently deleted, check your local backups in the WhatsApp/Databases folder on your device. You might be able to restore them if you act quickly!

In case your current backup doesn't have the messages, try looking at your older backups stored locally on your phone. Rename the older backup file and restore WhatsApp from that!
