Backing up our WhatsApp data is a crucial step in ensuring we never lose those precious conversations, pictures, or videos. However, sometimes we may want to stop WhatsApp from backing up, especially if our storage space is limited or for other personal reasons. In this guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of stopping WhatsApp backup. Let’s get started!

Why would you want to stop WhatsApp backup?

There can be various reasons why you might want to stop WhatsApp backup. Some of the common reasons include:

  • Limited storage space on your device
  • Privacy concerns
  • Reducing data usage
  • Switching to a new device and wanting to start fresh

Step 1: Open WhatsApp

Launch the WhatsApp application on your device by tapping on the WhatsApp icon.

Step 2: Access WhatsApp Settings

Once you are in the WhatsApp interface, find and tap on the three dots located in the top-right corner to access the settings menu.

Step 3: Navigate to Chats

Within the settings menu, locate and tap on the “Chats” option. This will open the chat settings.

Step 4: Tap on Chat Backup

In the chat settings, find the “Chat backup” option and tap on it.

Step 5: Disable Auto Backup

Within the chat backup settings, you will find a toggle button that enables or disables auto backup. Tap on the toggle button to disable it. This will stop WhatsApp from automatically backing up your data.

If you wish to re-enable backup in the future, follow the same steps and toggle the switch back on.

Step 6: Manual Backup

Keep in mind that stopping WhatsApp from auto-backing up doesn’t mean you can’t manually back up your data. If you want to create a one-time manual backup or you prefer to have more control over when your data is backed up, you can still manually perform backups from the chat backup settings.

That’s it! You have successfully learned how to stop WhatsApp backup. Whether it’s to free up space, enhance privacy, or simply customize your backup preferences, you can now control how WhatsApp handles your valuable data. Remember to regularly check your backup settings to ensure they align with your preferences and needs.
