t might seem strange but recovering Whatsapp data from an Android device is more complex than recovering from other devices (e.g. iPhone) or from a computer. This difficulty in recovering data from Android arises from the fact that the Android operating system is no longer accessible as it once was and in fact the new Android versions no longer even allow you to obtain the so-called root permissions on the phone, permissions that also allow you to access the memory internal phone.
If you want to recover Whatsapp messages on Android you must therefore rely on programs that can access the phone memory even in the absence of these root permissions. Below we point out the two best programs that can do all this.
