Whatsapp won't restore fully

[flossxo]

Hi. I accidentally deleted my conversations on whatsapp. They are all backed up to iCloud so I deleted the app and reinstalled it to recover them. However, the messages wouldn't restore and only restored the one last message I sent after deleting the conversations.

My whatsapp is still saying I have over 240 photos and over 9k messages in my iCloud back up - is there any way I can get these back or are they gone forever?

Thank you for any help.

According to the WhatsApp FAQ when you uninstall your WhatsApp you just have to install it again and Click restore when it prompts you restore your WhatsApp message history from Android. If in the case that you are not prompted the reasons may be that your SD card is corrupted and please take note that there are only up to 7 days worth of backup files, if you do a manual backup the automatic backup files will be overwritten.
