Can I retrieve or be sent a WhatsApp chat? Deleted by accident!

Just that really! I accidentally deleted my DP's and my whole WhatsApp chat since we met 😫Not the end of the world but I liked having it! Can I either retrieve it somehow or him send it to me? He's away and busy for the weekend so I can't just ask him to have a play around on his phone just yet.

Can he export chat from his phone (if he’s not deleted already!) and send to you?

but surely no urgency

Do you have an iPhone? If so, it’ll be backed up on iCloud.

It'll be backed up on Android too. Uninstall Whatsapp, reinstall and choose the latest backed up file. Google for more detailed instructions

Brilliant thanks all. It's Android so I'll try this

No luck! It must've backed it up today. Never mind. I'll ask him when he's back.
