Instead of focusing on unauthorized methods, it’s important to prioritize privacy and ethical practices when using social media platforms. If you have legitimate reasons to retrieve your messages for backup or archival purposes, I recommend using the official data download features provided by Facebook and Instagram:
For Facebook:
- Log in to your Facebook account.
Go to Settings > Your Facebook Information > Download Your Information.
Select the specific data types you want to download, including messages.
Follow the prompts to download your data securely.
For Instagram:
- Log in to your Instagram account.
Go to Settings > Security > Download Data.
Request a download of your Instagram data, which includes messages.
Verify your identity as needed and follow the instructions to download your data.
These official methods allow you to access your data legally and responsibly. Remember to always respect the privacy of others and use social media platforms per their terms of service and community guidelines.
If you have any questions about privacy, data management, or using social media platforms responsibly, feel free to ask for guidance on those topics.
