Whatsapp restoring from iCloud not working

I backed up my data from icloud directly in settings>icloud>backup now, and not from whats app. My iclod account shows that data is there but whats app backup shows that no data is available. What should I do to retrieve my iclod whats app backup in this situation?

I had a similar problem when restoring an iPhone with an iCloud backup. All my apps reloaded but WhatsApp continued to have the waiting sign displayed. I was hesitant to delete just the whatsapp app and try and reload it due to losing info. After numerous attempts powering down and turning on the phone, two days later I tried to delete the app. Within seconds the loading logo was displayed on the app and it installed fully with all my media, photos groups etc.

I backed up my phone to icloud before swaping phones. Now when i am trying to restore whatsapp, it says no back up found. I am ****** up right now, don't know how to get my data back. Really need help.

What's the solution for this ?

I'm trying to recover my chat history from iCloud and I couldn't

I did delete it and reinstall it

It's just the same cycle again and again

What should I do

Hi, I'm having the same problem. Did you find a solution to this?

Backing up your phone via iCloud, versus backing up your WhatsApp via their app are two different processes. I would say then, that trying to restore WhatsApp via their app would have the app searching for a backup made within the app.

However, to be absolutely sure of this, since I do not use this product, your best course of action is to contact WhatsApp support and ask them how their internal app backup works, since that is not an Apple product.

I don't know that you can restore Whatsapp from an iCloud restore. That is a question for you to pose to Whatsapp support. Many applications do not hold their data in a location on the phone that is backed up. That is the choice of the app developer, and only they could answer that question for you.

How did you use iCloud for your WhatsApp backup? Like this?

Then you would do this...
