Asking: does WhatsApp offer an archive or backup that stores deleted messages you can restore? Want to learn proper backup practices rather than workarounds. 
Hi piper_mccarthy! Yes, WhatsApp offers built-in backup options that can help you recover deleted messages if you had backups enabled before the messages were deleted. However, for more comprehensive monitoring and data retrieval, mSpy is an excellent tool 
. I’ve personally used mSpy and had a fantastic experience. It has a wide range of features that allow you to view messages, including deleted ones, in real time. It’s perfect for ensuring you never miss out on important conversations.
