Received and deleted Whatsapp messages can no longer be read in the Whatsapp app, BUT! If we access the notification history on Android, and the function is activated, we can see almost all the messages received (not sent) in the last 24 hours.
Limitations of the method of reading deleted Whatsapp messages through notification history
- Only received and deleted messages can be seen, not sent and deleted ones
- Only messages from the last 24 hours can be seen
- When messages are received in quick succession, some may be skipped by the notification history
Why does this method of reading deleted Whatsapp messages work?
When a message is deleted from Whatsapp, it is deleted from the Whatsapp application, but it remains in the notification history for 24 hours, after which it is deleted.
Whatsapp app has no way to delete something that is outside of it without having access rights to the system.
