Summary
If you've lost important photos or funny videos in WeChat, don't worry - there's a solution. This article will guide you on how to recover lost WeChat photos, videos, or messages on Android devices with ease.
"Hi, do you know how to restore the deleted photos and videos in WeChat? I cleaned up all WeChat history in my Samsung S7. Then when I checked my photos, some saved photos from WeChat were gone! I cannot find any tracks of those photos. Where can I restore the photos back?"
You removed your WeChat videos and photos by using a cleaning app. To recover them, you can try using a data recovery app on your Android phone, such as Deep Data Recovery or DiskDigger, to scan your device and retrieve the deleted files. Make sure to stop using your phone and the app until the recovery process is complete to avoid overwriting the deleted data. Also, be aware that the success of the recovery depends on the app's ability to read the deleted files and the condition of your phone's storage. You may also want to check your WeChat settings to see if there's a backup option available.
WeChat users on Android often experience photo and video loss due to various reasons, including system cleaning, accidental deletion, improper operation, or virus attacks, leading to lost messages and other important data.
If your Android phone experiences problems that result in lost photos, videos, and messages, you may be tempted to give up. However, Qiling software offers two major solutions to help you restore lost WeChat photos and videos from your Android phone.
You can easily restore lost photos and videos in WeChat from your Android phone by using a solution.
Method 1. Restore WeChat photos/videos from backup
Method 2. Recover WeChat photos/videos with Android data recovery software
To restore lost Android WeChat photos and videos, you can try using the WeChat backup feature. Go to WeChat settings, then select "Chat Settings" and choose the chat you want to backup.
If you have WeChat backups stored in your phone, you can restore deleted WeChat photos and videos from backups with simple clicks. To do this, go to Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud/Google Drive backup, then select the backup that contains your deleted WeChat content and follow the prompts to restore it. Alternatively, you can also check your phone's backup app, such as iTunes or Google Photos, to see if your deleted WeChat content is included in the backup.
After restoring your lost WeChat photos or videos, you can view and reuse them again directly from backups.
If you've thoroughly cleaned up your Android phone and want to recover lost data, a professional Android data recovery software is your best bet. I recommend trying Qiling MobiSaver for Android, which can help you restore all lost Android data without any issues. You can download it for free and use it to easily recover WeChat photos and videos.
Step 1. Connect your Android phone to computer
Install Qiling MobiSaver for Android on your computer and connect your Android phone to the computer using a USB cable.
Install the software and then click the "Start" button to initiate the connection process.
NOTE: To recover data from a rooted Android device, the software can only access the device if it has been rooted, so ensure your phone has been successfully rooted before proceeding with recovery.
Step 2. Scan Android phone to find the lost data
After connecting your Android phone, the software will quickly scan the device to find all existing and lost data, including your lost WeChat videos and photos.
To find the lost WeChat photos and videos, select the correct file types. This will allow you to easily locate the desired content.
Step 3. Preview and recover data from Android phone
Preview all the recoverable files one by one and then select out those you want quickly.
To list only the deleted WeChat photos and videos, turn on the "Only displayed deleted items" option, and then click "Recover" to get them back.
