There is something called a “backup” that stores all your files, allowing you to restore items that have been deleted. We will explain where to find WhatsApp Trash and how to recover deleted files.
WhatsApp backup
WhatsApp has a useful setting called “Backup”. When activated, this function makes a copy of everything in your WhatsApp profile, such as photos, messages, audio recordings, videos and documents, and saves this data on your cell phone and in the application itself.
Basically, WhatsApp backup is like a recycle bin because it contains all your profile files, whether they are deleted or not.
However, you can access them only if backup is enabled. This means you can recover data that has been deleted, either in the app or on your phone (depending on where you deleted the files and where copies still exist).
For example, if you had copies of files on your cell phone, but deleted them, you can still restore them if they are in your WhatsApp backup, and vice versa.
Although there is no function called “Trash” in WhatsApp, backup is a great way to recover deleted items. So, if you have important files and don’t want to lose them forever, it is necessary to activate automatic backup for WhatsApp.
It will be linked to your Google or iOS account, making copies of files in the cloud. The advantage of the cloud is that you can choose how often you save items: daily, weekly, or monthly.
All this information is present in the backup configuration section of WhatsApp itself. You also don’t need to wait for the system to automatically back up; You can do this manually whenever you want.
Therefore, even if there is no traditional “Trash” in WhatsApp, a backup is your best ally to recover deleted files. Make sure to turn this feature on to keep your data safe and accessible when you need it.
