Bring Exports to Life

Free · In‑App Purchases

Import, merge, and recover WhatsApp and Telegram chats. Rediscover your story with private on-device insights, Conversation Stories, and a redesigned Timeline. Chat Explorer is a private reader, search tool, timeline, and analytics app for exported chats from WhatsApp and Telegram, plus supported local chats on Mac. Import a WhatsApp .zip or .txt export, a Telegram Desktop JSON or HTML export, or explore supported local iMessage and WhatsApp chats on Mac. Turn years of messages, photos, videos, stickers, voice notes, and shared moments into something you can revisit on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Independent and not affiliated with WhatsApp, Meta, Apple, or Telegram. SEARCH BY WORDS OR MEANING Find the address, plan, joke, link, or tiny detail you forgot. Use full-text search for exact words, or semantic search when you only remember the meaning. Jump straight to the right moment in context. EXPLORE BY TIMELINE OR TOPIC Use Timeline to browse history by date, activity, milestones, and shared media. Use the Topic Mind Map to explore themes, recurring subjects, and connected ideas, rediscovering parts of the chat you might not know how to search for directly. RELIVE MEDIA AND AUDIO Browse photos, videos, stickers, and shared media from your export in one place. Open any item full-screen and jump back to the exact message. Listen to audio messages and generate transcripts so voice notes become searchable and readable. Audio transcription uses on-device processing by default. An optional Apple server fallback is disabled by default and only used if you enable it. EXPORT AND SHARE Export the full conversation as a PDF (including messages, media references, and audio transcripts) to save or print. Create beautiful shareable snapshots from milestones, statistics, timelines, activity patterns, and Wrapped-style insights. GROUP CHATS ARE FIRST-CLASS Group chats get dedicated graphs, participant analytics, activity breakdowns, timelines, message statistics, media insights, and group-specific views. UNDERSTAND THE CONVERSATION See message volume, active periods, response habits, emoji patterns, shared media, milestones, recurring topics, participant balance, and memorable moments. Some advanced analytics, semantic search, Timeline, Topic Mind Map, PDF export, transcription, and Wrapped cards require Chat Explorer Pro. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Imported chats are stored and analyzed on your device. Search, browsing, media gallery, analytics, timeline, and AI insights use on-device processing. No server upload is required.

This update resolves an issue with Apple Intelligence status detection and brings accessibility and search improvements. Fixed • Apple Intelligence availability now updates continuously while active. Enabling Apple Intelligence in Settings or waiting for models to finish preparing no longer requires restarting the app. • Status messages clearly distinguish between Apple Intelligence being turned off, actively preparing, or unsupported on the device. • Question intent detection no longer mistakes ordinary conversation statements for questions. • Fixed date interval filtering and vector fallback routing in chat answers. • Resolved background processing issues with concurrent date formatting. Improved • European Accessibility Act (EAA) compliance improvements, including VoiceOver descriptions for media and status icons, accessible Topic Mind Map actions, and dynamic text reflow. • Grounded chat retrieval handles multilingual questions and distracting matches more reliably. • Aligned in-app purchase privacy disclosures. Your chats remain stored and analysed on-device by default.
