This article will detail how to view your archive Facebook messages from your computer and mobile app.
Archived Messages on Facebook
Facebook is usually people’s primary means of communication, resulting in a torrent of daily messages. It’s also possible to become overwhelmed with the number of messages you get on the app and to gain better control, you use features like the archive or delete. However, deleting messages means you have no evidence a conversation ever happened. A deleted conversation can have adverse effects in the future, which makes the archive feature a fascinating option. When you archive a chat, you’re putting it in a folder away from your inbox. You won’t see this conversation anymore, but it’ll remain in that folder undeleted till you revisit it. It’s also possible to revisit the chat without having to return it to your inbox. The archive feature is useful when you’re distracted from other important texts, taking a break from the sender, and keeping your inbox decluttered. The process of archiving a message on Facebook, on your mobile app or browser, is discussed in the following headings.
