Snapchat: restore photos and videos - does it work?
The Snapchat app shows photos and videos for a maximum of ten seconds. If you want to restore the files, this is usually only possible with great effort. We show you how to do it.
Snapchat: backup photos and videos
Snapchat promises that photos and videos cannot be saved or cannot be saved unnoticed, but in practice this is not true:
- With a screenshot you can save every picture on iOS as well as on the Android smartphone. In this case, the sender is informed of this, but cannot do anything about it.
- For videos, the free "Dumpster" app helps you at least on Android: Once the app is installed, you can restore all the videos you have received. With pictures it works with "Snap Saver".
iOS: Recover Snapchat Videos
- Even after you have viewed an image or video on Snapchat, they will be saved in the temporary data directory for some time. However, to access the files, you must jailbreak your device.
- You can then install the "iFiles" app via Cydia.
- In the directory "var / mobile / applications" you will find numerous folders that are titled with various numbers and letters. At random, you need to find the right folder for Snapchat here and then open the "tmp" folder. Here are the last pictures and videos from Snapchat.
- You can also find detailed video instructions in this article.
