Wireless Emergency Alerts History

[ricardoburnsy]

When I restored an older samsung cloud backup that was made on S25, my emergency alert history now is empty. Yet before I restored backup, it showed my history. What happened?

Google says this is not the type of information that is backed up because it isn't app data. You may have seen them before due to them being in history on that device and not because they were actually backed up in any way.

Here is exactly what Google said.

It sucks that it isn't backed up.

Why would you need to know about old emergency alerts once the emergency is over?

I just want to see past history for a weather alert to show for insurance purposes. But my history is empty cause I restored from an older backup thinking that it included the history.

Any way to recover past wireless emergency alert history?

Could you just check what your local weather was on the day(s) in question?

If you tried to restore from an older back up it could be Android version compatible issue.

Can try notifications history but if it was long ago probably won't show up

I'll move this to the s25 Forums

I don't think emergency alert history is stored on backup anyways.

Probably right, not something I looked into .
