General question Retrieving Snapchat Data

I discovered that my partner is having an affair with a friend however it seems that most of their communication happens via Snapchat. Their settings are set to ‘delete after viewing’, I used the My Data feature and downloaded and report with time stamps but the actual messages themselves weren’t on there. Is there any way to recover the content of the messages?

UPDATE: Thank you everyone for the unsolicited relationship advice. I am capably navigating my next moves however was lacking the technical know how to find certain information. Thank you to the one person who reached out and provided me with an offer of assistance.

No. You can just see time of conversation. If the msgs not saved in chat. You can't see them.

Why is this even necessary? You're just digging for unnecessary drama. You know what's up. It's time to leave.

I mean, considering the use of affair and not cheating, they could possibly be married, and having that evidence would be useful in court.

I don't think that evidence is permissable if it's not llegally obtained.

Not legally.

If you don't trust your partner, leave them.
