Q&A:
Q: Can I read deleted or recalled Whatsapp, BBM, Skype, Wechat or other chat/social app messages?
A: Because notifications were not saved by system anywhere, only after Notification History is enabled, these message can be read later.

Q: Why the app does not record any notifications?
A: There're 2 possible cause. #1. The accessibility service and Notification History Pro service was not enabled. #2. Other accessibility service are using the notification access. In this case, try to disable other services and have a try again. If still not working, please send me an email for further support.

I love you this app. Using from 2020. However on my new device OPPO Reno 11 Pro it takes about a full minute to load whenever I launch the app. This is first time I'm facing this issue.

I installed it just to save ussd messages. In the begining it was working fine after enabling all accesibilities it needed. After 2 days it started saying not all accesibilities were enabled without myself changing anything. Then stoped recording. I actually uninstalled it once and re installed it. Same pattern, works for 2 days then stops

Best App, if you are having a gray screen saying "No Notifications", do those steps: 1. Open the App and tap on the gear icon ⚙️ in the bottom right corner, to open the settings menu. 2. Scroll down to "Check System Settings" tab, and tap on it. 3. Tap on "Availablity Service" to enable it, if it's not. 4. This will bring you to the Settings of the phone where you should be able to see "Notification History" in the "Installed Services" tab. 5. Activate it, you will need to put your fingerprint.
