3 Best Ways to Recover WhatsApp Call History On Android and iPhone.

To recover the deleted WhatsApp call history on Android and iPhone, follow these detailed methods.

Method 1: WhatsApp Call History Recovery Via WhatsApp Google Drive/iCloud Backup.

One of the methods to recover WhatsApp data, including call history, is to restore the recent backup before you delete it. The WhatsApp application backup on your device contains media, attachments, text messages, documents, and call history. Before you restore the Google Drive or iCloud WhatsApp backup on your device via uninstallation and reinstallation, you must ensure the backup you've available to restore contains the call history you want to recover.

1# Recover WhatsApp Call History on Android Via Google Drive Backup:

To recover the WhatsApp call history on Android via Google Drive backup, follow these steps.

• Long press and hold the WhatsApp application icon from your Android app screen until the popup appears.
• Tap the "Uninstall" button, open the Play Store, and then search for the "WhatsApp" application.
• Now, tap the "Install" button, and let the Play Store download and install the application.
• Next, open the app, agree with the terms and conditions, and allow all the permissions on your device. 
• Now, type your WhatsApp phone number, and then verify it.
• Next, tap the "Restore" button from the backup found screen.
• Now, let the restorer continue the process until the restoration is complete.

2# Recover WhatsApp Call History on iPhone Via iCloud Backup:

To recover the WhatsApp call history on your iPhone via iCloud backup, follow these detailed steps.

• Open the iPhone settings app, find the "General" tab, and open it.
• Scroll down, tap the "iPhone Storage" option, and then tap the "WhatsApp" application.
• Now, tap the "Offload App" option and confirm to uninstall it.
• Next, tap the "Reinstall App" option to reinstall it completely.
• Once you've reinstalled the WhatsApp application, open it and allow the permissions.
• Enter your WhatsApp phone number, verify it, and then, from the restore screen, tap the "Restore Chat History" option.
• Now, let the restoration process continue and wait until its completion.

Method 2: WhatsApp Call History Recovery Via Local Backup On Android.

In case you don't have a backup available on Google Drive to restore, you can still find the backup and restore it on your Android device. Before restoring the backup, ensure it contains the deleted call history that you want to recover.

To recover the WhatsApp call history on an Android device via local storage backup, follow these steps.

• Open the File Manager, My Files, or Files app on your device.
• Now, navigate to the WhatsApp folder by going into the internal storage or SD card.
• Next, navigate to the "Database" folder from the WhatsApp folder.
• Now, locate the most recent backup, which should contain the deleted call history.
• From there, you'll find two types of backups: "msgstore.db.crypt12" and "msgstore-YYYY-MM-DD.1.db.crypt12." The one without a date format is the most recent, and the others with a date format are previous backups. 
• Now select the backup containing the deleted call history and rename it to "msgstore_Backup.db.crytp12."
• Once you have renamed it, uninstall and reinstall the WhatsApp application on your device, set up WhatsApp again, and enter and verify your phone number.
• Now, from the Backup Found screen, tap the "Restore" button. 
• Let the WhatsApp application completely restore the backup on your device.

Note:

Please navigate to internal and SD card storage in case you don't find a backup in any one of them.

On an iPhone, you're not eligible to recover WhatsApp call history using local storage backup. Instead, you can recover them by restoring the iPhone device backup completely.
