Features:

WhatsApp Acquisition from Android
Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp can extract WhatsApp conversations directly from a wide range of Android smartphones. As WhatsApp securely encrypts its databases, root access is recommended (but not required) for acquisition. If no root access is available, Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp will employ a workaround by pushing an acquisition tool into the phone temporarily for extracting the decryption key.
If root access is available, Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp can extract WhatsApp conversations from Android handsets running Android 4.0 through 7.1.1. Without root access, compatibility is limited to Android versions 4.0 through 6.0.1.

WhatsApp Business for Android
WhatsApp Business extraction is supported for Android devices. Since WhatsApp Business is a separate app with a different security profile, Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp requires root access to extract information directly from a physical Android handset. Logical acquisition (backup files) as well as cloud extraction from Google Drive are available without root access.

Downloading Proprietary WhatsApp Backups
WhatsApp has the ability to create cloud backups of its database, saving them in Apple iCloud Drive (iPhone) or Google Drive (Android phones). WhatsApp backups are unique per phone number. This means that the number of available WhatsApp backups in the user's cloud account will depend on how many different phone numbers are used.

Information Available in WhatsApp Databases
WhatsApp is an instant messaging application. Its databases contain information about peer-to-peer communications between users, including the following records:
WhatsApp Database Content
Sent and received text messages complete with contact ID's and timestamps
User's contact database complete with phone numbers
Call logs
Pictures and videos sent and received, complete with timestamps and contact ID's

Viewing and Exporting
Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp is equipped with a built-in viewer supporting multiple WhatsApp databases extracted from various sources. The viewer includes instant filtering and quick search functionality. Finding a certain contact, message or conversation is easy by specifying a date range or typing a partial key word into the search box.
