How to Recover Deleted WhatsApp Photos on iPhone
Accidentally deleted important WhatsApp photos from your iPhone? Don’t worry—there are still ways to recover your cherished memories. This guide will walk you through effective methods to retrieve deleted WhatsApp photos on your iPhone.
1. Check WhatsApp’s Built-in Backup
WhatsApp automatically backs up your chats and media to iCloud daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on your settings.
To restore from a backup:
- Uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp from the App Store.
- Open WhatsApp and verify your phone number.
- When prompted, tap Restore Chat History to restore from iCloud.
Note: This method works only if the backup was created before the photos were deleted.
2. Use a Photo Recovery App
If the photos are not in your backup, specialized photo recovery apps can help. These apps scan your iPhone’s storage to locate and recover deleted photos.
Features to look for in a recovery app:
- Ability to recover photos without a backup.
- User-friendly interface with a preview option.
- Support for various photo formats.
Always choose reputable apps with positive reviews to ensure data safety.
3. Check the “Recently Deleted” Album
Before exploring advanced recovery options, ensure your photos aren’t in the “Recently Deleted” album:
- Open the Photos app.
- Navigate to Albums > Recently Deleted.
- If you find your photos there, select them and tap Recover.
Note: Photos remain in this folder for 30 days before permanent deletion.
4. Seek Professional Data Recovery Services
If the above methods don’t yield results, consider consulting professional data recovery services. They have specialized tools to retrieve lost data, albeit at a cost.
Research and choose certified professionals to handle your device.
