How to Recover Deleted WhatsApp Videos on iPhone Without Backup
Accidentally lost a crucial WhatsApp video on your iPhone and don’t have a backup enabled? Don’t panic — even without iCloud or Google Drive backups, there are straightforward ways to recover your deleted WhatsApp videos and get your memories back.
CHECK YOUR WHATSAPP CHAT MEDIA FIRST
Often, deleted videos remain accessible within the chat thread itself:
• Open WhatsApp and go to the chat where the video was sent or received
• Tap the contact or group name at the top
• Select “Media, Links, and Docs” 📂
• Scroll through to see if your video is still available and redownload it
SEARCH YOUR PHOTOS APP AND “RECENTLY DELETED”
WhatsApp typically saves videos to your Photos app if “Save to Camera Roll” is enabled:
• Open the Photos app > tap “Albums” > check the “WhatsApp” album and “Recents”
• Go to the “Recently Deleted” folder — videos can be restored within 30 days 🗑️
USE A VIDEO RECOVERY APP FOR WHATSAPP
If manual checks don’t work, a recovery tool can help:
• Download and install the Photo Recovery app from the App Store
• Let the app scan for lost WhatsApp videos on your device
• Preview recoverable videos and selectively restore what you need 🎥
ASK THE SENDER TO RESEND THE VIDEO
If everything else fails:
• Contact the person or group who sent the video
• Politely ask them to resend the file — this is often the easiest solution 🤝
PREVENT FUTURE VIDEO LOSS
• Enable “Save to Camera Roll” for WhatsApp videos in WhatsApp Settings > Chats
• Regularly back up your chats and media to iCloud or Google Drive for peace of mind ☁️
• Avoid using cleaner apps that may accidentally delete important files
Losing WhatsApp videos without a backup is frustrating, but these steps can help you recover your important memories quickly and easily!
