Deleted photos from your Android phone, or a phone with a cracked screen holding your WhatsApp chats? dr.fone Toolkit brings recovery, transfer and repair tools together, with Android recovery workflows for phone storage, Google Drive backups, and supported broken phones.
Three Android recovery sources
The recovery workflow starts with the source that still holds the data. A connected Android phone can be scanned for supported files, or the program can extract available items from a Google Drive backup. For certain supported broken-phone cases, Dr.Fone offers a separate extraction path.
Results can include photos, videos, audio, contacts, call history, messages and attachments, documents, and supported WhatsApp content. The scan can focus on selected file types; previewing the results lets users choose specific items to save instead of recovering everything.
- Phone storage: scan a recognized Android device for available data.
- Google Drive: sign in to an authorized account, choose a backup, and preview supported content.
- Broken phones: use the workflow that matches a supported screen or touch failure.
What can be recovered from WhatsApp?
Dr.Fone includes recovery paths for WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business data. Depending on the available source, supported chats, attachments, and media can be previewed before export. Messages can be exported in HTML or CSV, while available media and documents can be saved in supported formats.
From a Google Drive backup you can pick contacts, texts, call history, calendar entries and other supported items. For the supported Google Drive and broken-phone workflows, the recovery does not require rooting the phone.
More than data recovery
The broader toolkit also includes file management and transfer tools, along with options for screen unlocking and mobile system repair. Those modules address different tasks from the Android recovery scans, so the right workflow depends on whether the goal is retrieving files, moving data, or resolving a device issue.
