RECOVER DELETED MESSAGES LIMITATIONS
Please be aware that it doesn't exist an official and supported way to recover deleted messages.
This is a workaround and may encounter limitations caused by the selected messaging app or even the Android OS:
⚠ Text messages are recovered by your notifications, therefore, if you have put a chat on silence, or if you are currently watching a message on the messaging app before it's deleted you will not receive a notification so WA Helper can't save it! This also means that is impossible to recover notifications/messages before you downloaded this app.

⚠ WA Helper can't save files if they aren't completely downloaded! So if you are offline or you have an unstable connection, or in general if the sender deletes the message containing a media before the messaging app downloads it, WA Helper can't do anything to save it.

⚠ If you aren't using a WiFi connection, some media may not be automatically downloaded by your messaging app because of your settings. You can change this behavior in Messaging app > Settings > Data and storage usage and increase your chances.
