Whatsapp ChatSearchV3 sqlite database

chillichicken · 2018-06-20T08:23:47Z

Hello All,I wonder if any of you could point me in the right direction of finding the actual purpose of the whatsapp database 'ChatSearchV3'. I have found some chat content relating to an investigation in this database but not in 'ChatStorage'. My suspicion is that the conversation was deleted but perhaps whatsapp still keeps the data in ChatSearch. It sounds like it's some sort of a indexing table but I want to read more about it to make sure I understand it.I appreciate any input.Thank you in advance.

I totally agree with you.

The main stream software concentrates on the actual databases where for want of a better term the data sits re messaging.

They do not look at all databases relating to an application.

Hence a good rummage through all databases is very worthwhile.

Next time we recommend you to try Oxygen Forensic Detective where ChatSearchV3.sqlite is automatically parsed. We usually research every database of most popular apps and release updates at least once a month.
