WhatsApp chats: how to print one
WhatsApp can hand you a whole chat as a file, and it takes a few taps on the phone. No computer is needed.
On an iPhone
- In WhatsApp, open your conversation, tap its name at the top, then Export Chat.
- Choose Without Media, then Save to Files.
On Android
Tap ⋮, then More, then Export chat, and choose a place to save it.
What you get
The export is the whole chat as plain text: a .txt file, sometimes inside a .zip. A photo or voice note appears as a short note where it was sent.
You can open that file and print it as it is. It comes out as one long list.
As pages
To have it set as pages, upload the export to read receipts. Or, in Export Chat, choose Mail instead of Save to Files and send it to the address we give you. The WhatsApp page has the same steps with the book in mind.
If you want it as a book
read receipts prints a WhatsApp chat as a book, with every message in the order it was sent and each person's name beside what they wrote. You look through every page before anything prints.
