I have logged out of WhatsApp on my iPhone XS Max and am now trying to log in on an iPhone 11. However, I have forgotten the encrypted backup password and don’t want to lose my backup. I also do not have access to my WhatsApp account right now, or I would change the password. Please help me recover the forgotten password so I can access my backup and log in.
iPhone 11, iOS 18
