How to Read Deleted WhatsApp Messages

Jakarta, VIVA – WhatsApp, the world's most popular messaging app, offers a feature that allows users to delete messages they've sent, whether accidentally or intentionally.

While this can be useful for correcting mistakes or removing sensitive information, it can also leave recipients curious about what the deleted message contained.

Fortunately, there are a few methods that may allow you to see these deleted messages, even if the sender has removed them from your chat on iOS and Android.
