What is a Class 0 messages (Flash SMS)?
It is a type of SMS that appears directly on the main screen without user interaction and is not automatically stored in the inbox.
It can be useful in emergencies, such as a fire alarm or cases of confidentiality, as in delivering one-time passwords.

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 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.

Ratings and reviews

It's rare for me to rate apps highly. This has honestly been one of the most useful and reliable apps in my drawer for the past two years, and I want to express my appreciation. It's completely free, with no splash ads (just an unintrusive ad bar at the bottom), doesn't even nag me for reviews, works simply, consistently, and intuitively, and adds a feature to the Android system that is very useful in a wide variety of circumstances. Thank you for creating and maintaining this.

It is a little bit complex but it's also great app to get the deleted chats. The app do not support pictures and audio files. It's also get the read all notifications, I hope if it delete the repeated notifications automatically. Or at least delete the notifications repeated more than 3 times. It is annoying to see "sending the videos" thousands times in the app. I hope all these issues can be resolved Thanks for this app

Mostly works. But settings screen is white-on-white when phone is in dark theme. Also, would like to see a global option to limit the total number of notifications it saves. (I discovered this had recorded over 15000 notifications each for quite a few apps and seemed to be responsible for a serious phone sluggishness. Purging the log has helped, but shouldn't be needed.)
