Hi,
I have recently deleted some important data from my Android device. Does anyone have any experience with possible (ideally free) recovery?
Thanks,
Nathan

Re: Android Data Recovery
Thanks Claude.
I've had a good look around, and also tried a few; EaseUS, Recuva, Wondershare.... I am out of my depth here, many of the free offerings appear nothing more than scam software, also rooting appears necessary, with which I am uncomfortable.
Essentially, it is only my Whatsapp folders (photos/Video) that I need to recover from the phone (not SD card) - Samsung S7. If anyone knows how to recover Whatsapp data specifically, I would appreciate the input.
For now, I am going to hold on in the hope that somebody comes along that has had prior successful experience.

Re: Android Data Recovery
Not sure of any that actually work, never needed it, however, I recommend that you install the Windows version on your PC in future, that way you'll have your data on 2 devices and can backup whichever is more convenient.
Good luck.
Good luck.
Cheers, Claude.

Re: Android Data Recovery
You'll find the WhatsApp folder under the %appdata% folder Stuart.
