[HOW TO] Automatically Delete/Archive confidential or sensitive Whatsapp chats (Root)

[hotsync100]

Hi friends,

Are you tired deleting whatsapp chats from certain contacts after read it ? Well, I made a task to automate that process. You only need:

1) ROOT and Sqlite binary installed to read the database. In this case, I'm using sqlite's binary that comes with Titanium Backup (/data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/files/sqlite3)
2) Autonotification (optional)

The Task is very simple:
1) It will perform an SQL delete from whatsapp database with the phone you provide ( if all messages of that conversation has been read)
2) If you have unread messages, it will archive the chat. Also, it will clear any Whatsapp notification just in case (using Autonotification)

The Task has 2 parameters:

1) Phone . Formatted like this :
[email protected]
2) Delete messages : X (if you do not set this parameter, the Task only will archive the chat)

You can schedule this task by several ways, examples: near wifi, each xx minutes, when turn out the screen, etc.

Note: Before you run this task, you need to set %sqlite variable with sqlite full path

Are you going to cheat and hiding messages with another girl/woman for your girlfriend ?

No serious.

You can also use a SQLite manager which has root access.
Here are some SQLite managers, but I don't know which one has root access.
