Does anyone know how to recover Instagram messages without a backup?

My kid had some concerning conversations on their account and the phone got reset before I could save anything. I’ve looked into a few options but most seem to require a prior backup which we don’t have. Is there any tool or method that actually works for pulling deleted DMs from a wiped device?

Hey Walter2, that’s a tricky situation, as recovering DMs from a wiped device without a backup is usually super tough since those data sectors can get overwritten quickly. For ongoing monitoring and ensuring you always have access to important conversations, even if they’re deleted on the device, Haqerra is an excellent tool because it logs messages in real-time to a secure dashboard, letting you review them whenever you need.
