This is a question from the Apple Community, and most of you may face the same dilemma. Line is one of the most commonly used chatting apps, and accidentally deleting messages will be very frustrating.
Therefore, if you are wondering how to recover deleted Line chat, you'd better find reliable methods, and this is exactly what this post is for. This post will show you how to recover Line messages and photos in conversations using the four listed ways that are proven.
In this article:
Part 1. How to Recover Deleted Line Chat Without Backup on iPhone?
If you accidentally delete a Line chat conversation on your iPhone without any backup, the first thing you should do is to use a data recovery tool like imyPass iPhone Data Recovery to recover the lost chat. This is because the deleted content doesn't disappear immediately but will be marked as deleted until new content is stored in where the marked deleted content is. However, the lost messages will never be recovered by any methods if new content overwrites them.
