hello everyone in this article we will discover how to recover all of your conversations and DMs on instagram. Let's go ! So to begin, I'm going to click on "my conversations", then on the most recent conversation, and as you can see it is actually a classic conversation, we see that all emojis and photos are displayed correctly. It’s a classic conversation there is no surprise. Now I'm going to click "back", and delete this conversation. So I pull to the left and hit the delete button. Now the conversation is no longer available on Instagram, we can no longer find it. To confirm that, we will do a quick test, so I click on create a new conversation with the same participant which is »startupfood". Then I will write a new message, and I will click on "send" ... and as I clicked on "send" we see that the rest of the conversation does no longer exist, there
is no history remaining. When
I click on the conversation all the previous
messages have been deleted, ant there is way
to find dm that were deleted when the conversation
had been deleted. There is actually only one
way to recover them using a third party website
but before that I need to collect my instagram
data. To do that I need to click on the bottom
right on the icon to go to the profile section,
and then on the top right on the three bars
to display the drop-down menu, and then click
on settings. Then we will click on the tab
called security, then we will go to download
the data
. Then I will click on « request
download" and I will arrive on a screen where
I need to enter my password. For the purpose
of the video I blurred the moment when I typed
my password but once you have filled in your
password you click on the button at the top
right which is called "next". Once you have
done that you can click on the « done »
button and then all you have to do is wait
for Instagram to send you the email containing
the link to download your data. Please note
that bigger your account is I mean tons of
content, a lot of stories, and so on, longer
you will need to wait for the email to arrive.
For instance, to make this video
I had to
wait four minutes for the Instagram email
to arrive while it's a really small account
with only three conversations, so imagine
if you have an account with a ton of content,
It will require a lot of time. So if you don't
receive your email within the next 30 seconds,
don't freak out, it's completely normal. Now
that the email has arrived we will simply
click on it, then we will go to the link called
"download data". Here we will see a transition
that passes by instagram and then by the web
browser. Then I need to enter my password
again so the same thing I blurred it, and
then we click on « login. Then
I arrive
on a screen where I can save my IDs, it’s
up to you but personally I chosen "not now ».
Then I arrive on the actual download page,
so I click on "download data" in blue, and
then "download" on the pop up screen to launch
the download on the phone. From now on it
is possible that the situation you meet is
slightly different from what I am showing
in this video because as I explained previously
I used a very small account, there are only
two photos and three conversations, meaning
when instagram sends my data it needs to generate
only one file that contains all my data. If
you have a very large account with tons of
stories,
tons of videos and so on ... Chances
are that instagram needs to split all of your
data into several large files. But do not
worry if you are in this case only the first
file is useful. Only consider the file number
one, all the others contain the heavier items
like stories and photos. Once the download
is complete I will click on the top right
on the small arrow pointing down, and I will
click on the file to view the file in the
download folder of my phone. The file that
we downloaded arrived in "zip" format so if
you have an android device it's perfect you
have nothing to do, just keep this file as
it is and you will upload
it to the site that
I will show you in a moment. But if you have
an iphone or ipad I do not know exactly why
but there is a small issue, meaning we have
to un compress and recompress the file, otherwise
it doesn’t work. Don’t worry it takes
two seconds, I just need to make a long click
on the file that brings a drop-down menu I'll
click all the way down on « uncompress",
it will create a folder and one more time
I will do a long click on the folder, again
drop-down menu and I will go all the way down
and click on "compress" and then I delete
the two useless items, the folder and the
first "zip" file. Now I end up with a usable
zip file but again if you have an android
phone you don't need to do this step. From
there all the hard work is down, I will return
to the browser and I will go to the website
« insta-recovery.com » if.
On this site I will click on the square in
the middle to upload my downloaded data, and
then I click on "browse", I choose the file
"zip" that we just downloaded and then I wait
a few moments, it may take more or
less time
depending on the number of conversations you
have, and depending on the quality of your
connection so just be patient. Once it's done
you click on the button marked « show deleted
messages" and there you will see all of your
conversations with all the messages that have
been deleted as you can see we have the history
of the conversation that you I shown you in
the beginning of the video, while on the instagram
app there is still not this history because
this history has simply disappeared and it
is impossible to recover it without "insta
-recovery ". As you can see we can even retrieve
photos, but we cannot recover stories nor
audio messages. I hope you liked this article
Bye bye! take care guys
