How to convert a WhatsApp chat to Excel
1. Export the chat
Open the chat in WhatsApp, tap More, then Export chat, and choose Without media. Save the .txt or .zip file.
2. Choose the exported file
Pick the .txt or the .zip here. Android and iPhone exports both work, and the chat is read on this device.
3. Open the CSV
A CSV downloads with one row per message. Sort or filter it by sender or date in Excel or Google Sheets.
FAQ
Is my chat uploaded?
No. The export is read inside your browser, so the messages never leave your device.
Does it work with iPhone and Android exports?
Yes. Both layouts are read, with 12-hour or 24-hour times.
What happens to photos and voice notes?
Export the chat without media. Attachments then appear as a line such as image omitted, and the text is kept.
Are long messages kept on one row?
Yes. A message that spans several lines stays in one cell.
Why does a cell start with an apostrophe?
A message that begins with =, +, - or @ gets an apostrophe so the spreadsheet shows it as text and does not run it as a formula.
Can I count messages per person?
Yes. Open the CSV, select the Sender column and use a pivot table or a filter.
