WhatisRemoved+

What WhatisRemoved+ does and who it suits

WhatisRemoved+ is a monitoring app for people who want to know when something has been removed from a chat or a folder. It works from your notifications and from folders on the phone. It is aimed at anyone who uses messaging apps and does not want to miss a message that was taken back.

You pick the apps and folders to watch during installation. The app then records changes to those notifications and reports a deleted message, a deleted file, or an app notification that carries important information.

Catching deleted messages in chat notifications

When a message is deleted in a watched app, WhatisRemoved+ tells you what happened, so you can still see the text that was removed. The same check covers changes to a notification, not only deletions. Apps you have not selected are left alone.

The listing also describes alerts for notifications from selected apps that show important information. This is separate from deleted-message alerts and works on the same notification feed.

Spotting deleted files in watched folders

Besides notifications, the app watches folders you choose and reports when a file in them is deleted or changed. You set the folders during the same setup step as the apps. Folders not chosen during setup are not monitored.

Controlling what gets saved and where it is kept

Only notifications from the apps you select are stored. The listing says the app does not keep every notification, and it uses a configurable setup tool plus adaptive algorithms to save only what it judges you need. The listing describes this as adjustable to each user.

According to the listing, WhatisRemoved+ does not send your information to external servers. Saved data stays on your own phone.
