The blog also claims that the recipient can access the deleted messages regardless whether it has been deleted from sender’s end.

How to Read Deleted Messages
To read deleted messages, you will have to follow the following steps:

- After downloading the app, search the message in the Android notification log. Those users who are using third-party launchers like Nova Launcher it’s even easier.
- The notification log can be accessed without the need for an additional app. Long press the home screen, then tap on Widgets > Activities > Settings > Notification log. You can then access the system’s notification log.
- On stock Android, a Settings widget can give access to the notification log as well.
