A pause in communications can be a good idea – that turns into a very bad idea when it wants to recover conversations or files.
There are those who call you “detox digital”: The person is no longer linked to the internet, especially to social networks. Leaves aside the virtual life to central to “real life”.
A central step – perhaps the most important step, really – for this break is Uninstall applications on the mobile phone.
O WhatsApp It will be one of them. The person who wants to do the detox is no longer receiving messages of messages, updates in a group called.
It takes the WhatsApp from the mobile phone, no longer has that green icon on the mobile phone and feels relieved.
But…
WhatsApp is also needed for work affairs. Therefore, this person continues to use the application, but only on the computer. Either by the application itself, or by the browser, as if it were another site.
It reaches a certain day, more specifically two weeks after uninstalled the application on the mobile phone, and sees this warning to the computer: “Waiting for the message. This may take a while”.
And see that… in all conversations on WhatsApp. You can’t see anything from the history. All messages disappeared.
What happened?
WhatsApp itself leaves the list of possible reasons For this to happen: the message was not delivered; the recipient or sender have re -installing WhatsApp recently; or are not using the latest version of WhatsApp; replaced your main device and installed WhatsApp on a new device with the same number.
But the true origin is below, in the list of explanations: You have to start session on your main mobile phone every 14 days to keep associated devices connected to your WhatsApp account.
That is, as the application on the mobile phone was uninstall, the messages were all erased 14 days later.
You can even use WhatsApp daily on the computer but, as you do not have the application on your mobile phone (or, even if it had the application, as it did not start session), After 14 days, everything disappears. Messages, files… Everything.
Can you recover? No. Even if you install the application on your mobile phone, you can’t.
You can only recover if you have already activated a backupof course; If the messages were already stored (on Google Drive), then you will recover what is stored there.
