Hi Maddiemecham!


When you permanently delete messages, they are gone forever. There is no way of recovering them.


If you would like to see recently deleted messages, tap edit at the top-left corner on your device, then tap show recently deleted. If it doesn't say show recently deleted, that means that there are no messages in recently deleted.


Take Care!
