Lost texts

[Dobby70]

My texts have disappeared from one contact. I didn't delete, they went. Can I recover them?

Hi @Dobby70  Welcome to the Samsung Community?    Have you checked the Recycle Bin if you are using Samsung Messages.   3 Dot Menu- Recycle Bin.  otherwise you would only be able to retrieve if the Messages  have been backed up.  Accounts and Back up,Samsung cloud-Restore Data.

Hi, The recycle bin just shows deleted files

[JAMES4578]

It is the recycled Bin within  Samsung Messages, only Messages are stored there.  The Recycle Bin for My Files is different.   Google Messages does not offer this option so if using that  would need to have backed up.

Hi James, I couldn't find recycle in the messages setting so I presume that's it 😪

A pity,advisable to back up your Messages.
