There are a few things that will clear your chat history on Kik. These are security features that we’ve built-in to the app to protect your privacy.
Your chat history is cleared when:
- You log out of your account
- You log in to your account on a different device
- You delete your Kik app
- You deactivate your account
We don't see or store any of the chats between users, and so we aren't able to retrieve a copy of your messages for you. Once you log in, you'll still be able to see all the chats you had in your conversation list before you logged out. However, all your messages and content will be cleared from those chats.
If you see "Nothing Yet" as the message preview to a chat in your main chat list, it means that there are no messages between you and that friend in the chat. Once you start chatting with a friend the "Nothing Yet" preview will disappear.
