Whatsapp

WhatsApp has become an all-in-one hub for many users allowing them to send messages to their contacts, and also sharing photos, videos, contacts, and more. However, if an important message accidentally gets deleted it will be next to impossible to recover it if you did not make a backup on your phone.

WhatsApp is strictly against the policy of keeping a record of personal and private chats, which is why the application is compatible with other applications and features that save all messages for restoring.Whatsapp
