WhatsApp brought the feature of “Delete for everyone” that deletes the message from both the ends; from the recipient and the sender as well. The company brought this feature quite late and while many are appreciating it, there are a few who even want to view the deleted messages. The latest delete message feature by WhatsApp isn't foolproof and does include a loophole with the help of which you can view the deleted messages on WhatsApp. But, there are a few limitations included while using this method.
Many messaging apps have this feature with them for a very long time. Unlike other apps like Telegram, the WhatsApp shows a label that a message has been deleted. There can be any reason that why the sender deleted the message, maybe it wasn’t intended for you or sent accidentally. Well, whatever the reason is, you’re just too curious to read that deleted message and unfold the unnecessary mystery tied to the message.
Here’s a method to read the deleted message on WhatsApp and limitations that come with this method. And, it should be noted that this is a loophole and the makers may soon eradicate it completely to make the senders’ messages more leak proof.
The Timeline app will store all the deleted messages but here are a couple of catches.
Limitations -
There's one more app, which you can try and this is Notification History on Android. You can download this app from Play Store. Reportedly, you may lose track of these messages in case you restart the mobile device. Also, it doesn't allow you to read more than first 100 characters
Give a try to these apps and test by sending messages from a different mobile to your mobile and let us know how is this working for you.
Note : These apps were downloaded for a shorter period of time just to test the functionality. Users should carry out the steps at their own risk. Mobilescout shouldn't be held responsible for anything going wrong.

For the first time, I am feeling "cheated" to own an iPhone as this works only on Android phones :D :D
And here I am, who's craving for one :p :p
So, I'd need to download a notification history recording app for this purpose? And this isn't a built-in whatsapp service.
Doesn't matter as long as your purpose is served.
