Can I recover a deleted SMS conversation?

No. Once you delete an SMS conversation from Loophole, it's permanently removed from our systems - and there is no way to recover it.

This is a hard delete, not a "trash bin" situation. When you confirm deletion, the conversation is gone immediately and irreversibly. Our agents can NOT recover it for you.


Why SMS conversations can't be recovered

  • Immediate removal from the database
    Deleted conversations are purged from our system the moment you confirm. There's no backup holding area or recovery window.

  • Security and privacy by design
    We built the system this way intentionally. When you delete something, it should actually be deleted - not sitting in limbo where it could be exposed, leaked, or accessed later.

  • You're in control of your own logs
    Permanent deletion ensures your SMS Logs only show what you've chosen to keep, with nothing lingering in the background.


Before you delete

Make sure you're certain before confirming deletion. Once it's gone, it's gone.

If you think you might need a record of the conversation later:

  • Screenshot it before deleting

  • Copy the messages you want to keep into a note or document


Reminder: Even if you don't delete them manually, all SMS conversations are automatically deleted after 30 days. If you want a permanent record, save it before that window closes.
