Understanding Unsent Messages on Messenger

Messenger allows users to send messages instantly, but sometimes we change our minds and want to unsent them. But what happens to those unsent messages? Can we retrieve them? Can we still see them? 

Unsent messages are the ones that were deleted before they were sent. They will not be visible to the receiver, and you will not be able to find them in your message history. However, that does not mean they are lost forever. 

You can retrieve unsent messages on Messenger as long as you do it before you exit the chat or refresh the page. Once you leave the conversation or refresh the page, the message will be lost permanently. 

If you are wondering if you can see unsent messages from someone else, the answer is no. If someone unsends a message, it will be completely removed from both the sender's and receiver's conversation history. 

Now that you understand what unsent messages are and what happens to them, let's move on to how you can find and retrieve them.

Download NotiSave App from Play Store or IOS Store

NotiSave (Notification History logs Saver) app allows you to save all upcoming notifications on your mobile phone. With this Notification Saver app, you can Save all notifications in one place and can keep your Noti-bar (Notifications Bar) clean.

1. Install the app first. if you are an Android user use Play Store to download apk, or if you are an IOS user use IOS Store to download the app.
2. Open and Configure The App to listen for new notifications where it can store and save the unsent messages to the internal storage which can be accessed in the further process to view what was unsent, who unsent, and when the messages were unsent.
3. When new messages arrived it will save & when someone unsend messages you will see back what was unsent.  You can also see when, who, and from where the messages were unsent to you, just for a Facebook User called "Mina Rana" unsent message whose content is "Hey Baby how are you?" on May 12 2023 at 09:10 AM.

Step 1 - Install

First, you need to go to your Play Store or IOS Store. if you are an Android user use Play Store & if IOS use IOS Store. search for Notisave and download the app below. if you are not able to download the app or find the app from the play store or IOS store you need to search for the apk file in a browser like Chrome, Firefox, etc and download the package and install it manually on your device.  In my case, I can install the apk from my Play Store apk in Android, where I am using Samsung Android V11 in this tutorial.

If you cannot find this app in Play Store or IOS Store you can use another app called Notification Saver, which also works the same as this app, still, you can use that apk if this does not work for your side. You can comment below if you are facing any problems while installing this app on your device.

Step 2 - Open and Configure The App to listen for new notifications.

After the app is installed on your device you need to configure the app to listen to the messenger push notification events to save the messages before it's unsent by the Facebook user. configure the Notisave app as shown in the screenshot below. and close the app & wait for someone to unsend the messages, get back and relax.... now you can read unsent messages. 😮

You need to follow the following steps in order to configure this apk to listen for new Notifications.

1. Open the apk after the installation is Successful.
2. You need to skip the onboarding screens for the first load of this app.
3. It will show a dialog to allow access to notifications, you need to allow the app to read the notification, otherwise, we cannot read the unsent messages. 
4. After granting the notification permission you need to enable the notification Access from your setting, the app will show the setting to enable Notification Access, you just need to enable or check the NotiSave to allow access notifications.
5. If the notisave app asks for permission to Read Write Internal Storage just allow it because the messages need to be saved into the internal storage which is unsent. 
6. Then it will show a dialog and list of installed apps on your device to listen for new notifications, you need to uncheck all the apk and just check only Messenger where we only want to read the unsent messages from Facebook Messenger.
7. That's it, you have successfully configured the app to save unsent messages where you can see them later. Sounds Cool!

Step 3 - View unsent Messages

You will be able to view unsent messages now you need to open your app and just click the user whichever you want to read unsent messages. I have proof for both messenger and notisave apps where you can see the messages that were unsent in real-time,
