Backing up your WhatsApp messages is crucial, especially if they contain valuable memories or important information. Here are some methods and considerations based on user discussions:

Exporting Chats

One straightforward method to back up your chats is by exporting them. On both Android and iOS, you can export individual chats by going to the chat, tapping on the contact's name, and selecting "Export Chat." You have the option to include media or not, and you can send the exported file via email or save it to a cloud service [3:3]. This method creates a .txt file for the chat history and saves media separately [1:1].

Local Backups

For Android users, creating a local backup is possible. You can back up your WhatsApp data locally on your device instead of Google Drive. This involves using third-party tools like Syncthing to sync the WhatsApp folder to your computer or server [2:3]. Additionally, there are scripts available that allow you to extract and decrypt the message database from your phone [2:2].

Cloud Backups

WhatsApp allows you to back up your messages to Google Drive (Android) or iCloud (iOS). However, these backups are stored in hidden folders and are primarily for disaster recovery rather than archival purposes [3:2]. It's essential to ensure that your Google account or Apple ID is secure and accessible to restore these backups.

Cross-Platform Transfers

Transferring WhatsApp messages between Android and iPhone can be challenging due to platform restrictions. A workaround is to use Telegram as an intermediary. Export your WhatsApp messages to Telegram on your Android device, then access them on your iPhone through Telegram [4:1]. While this method doesn't integrate the messages into WhatsApp on the new device, it provides a way to retain access to your chats.

Considerations and Recommendations

Encryption: Be aware that WhatsApp backups are encrypted, and accessing them outside of WhatsApp requires specific keys and tools [2:10].
Regular Backups: Regularly back up your chats to avoid losing data due to device loss or damage.
Multiple Methods: Consider using multiple backup methods (e.g., local, cloud, export) to ensure redundancy and accessibility.
Third-Party Tools: Research any third-party tools thoroughly before use to ensure they are reputable and safe.

By following these methods, you can safeguard your WhatsApp messages and maintain access to them across devices and platforms.

ORIGINAL POST

Hey, so I’m not very technical whatsoever. Apologies in advance.

I have years worth of chats and media with my dad who sadly passed away. It’s been just over a year and now his profile photo has disappeared so I’m guessing his provider has cancelled his number? Which is strange because my mum has continued to make the monthly payments ? I’m assuming it’s because it’s been completely out of action. Not really WhatsApp related but if anyone can shed any light on this point while we’re at it, bonus.

I’m worried our conversations are going to disappear or somethings going to go wrong. I can see an “export chat” option but I’ve no idea where to export it to, all sorts of different options come up (iphone).

I just want them backed up. The chats are definitely backed up to my iCloud so am I just covered as I am??

Will they disappear eventually from my main WhatsApp?

It would break me if I lost these, we were very close and messaged every day. They’re pretty much my go to to read through when I’m missing him.

Note I don’t have a laptop or any other apple device, just my phone.

Any help would be very appreciated

I suggest you to do a local encrypted backup and save it in an external disk drive to have it as a checkpoint saved safely.

Believe me, it works.

Emergency_Plate3956 · 1 month ago

WhatsApp will delete the account after 120 days of inactivity or if the SIM gets canceled. When you export it's saved as a .txt file 40,000 messages without media and 10,000 messages with media.

You would have to save them to your phone and/or to your cloud account.

I wouldn't just rely on WhatsApp backup i would export them and save them.

I download from my Google Drive backup with https://github.com/B16f00t/whapa.

The media was unencrypted but the message database is.

I had to use https://github.com/EliteAndroidApps/WhatsApp-Key-DB-Extractor to install an older version which let's toy backup and extract the key.

I then used whapa again and used the key from above to decrypt the message database.

All done without root.

I had to make changes to get the extractor to work. I suggest avoiding the bat version if you're on Windows and using the power shell version.

Make sure you run a Google drive backup first.

The script uses adb to uninstall WhatsApp and install an older version which has the key locally rather than hidden in the protected 'data' directory.

It reinstalls it afterwards and I had no problems but worth a go.

With the key extractor I have to recompile 'abe.jar' - the Java app that converts the backup to a tar file to remove a version check (it may depend on the version of Android uses so if you're phone is older you may not need this)

It goes into one of the "hidden" folders in Google Drive that you can't normally access - so it's probably fine for disaster recovery in case you lose your phone (as long as you also replace it with an Android because you can't restore messages cross-platform). But as a usable backup for archival purposes, not really.

For WhatsApp backups on Google Drive? No, why would it be?

1 upvotes on reddit

dr100 · 2 years ago

Yes, everything needs to work flawlessly to recover that backup: registering your number again with Whatsapp, logging in to Google, and the whole workflow in the new phone to download everything (which can be many GBs or even tens of GBs if you've been at it for many years and are in groups that send lots of media). Of course, many things can go wrong with both your Google Account and your Whatsapp/phone number especially if your phone and SIM were stolen.

It is ironic that in this sub of all places I've had two (possibly more but two big) kerfuffles with people who actually were pushing this idea that it's GOOD that users aren't in control of their own backups but anyone else is (case in point: Google and Facebook) it's perfectly fine and desirable! In this sub of all places!

In any case to give something actionable for the OP (that you can also read independently of any other service or accounts): for now you CAN have an independent backup for Whatsapp Android, see here. You need to use the hex option and of course save the key in a good way and to make from time to time a copy of the mentioned directory (which is accessible without shenanigans). And to use a third party program from github to decrypt your stuff (that might not work anymore next time Whatsapp changes something, but for now and all the backups you'r have since you changed to the hex key encryption it would work).

At least on iOS, you can export messages. You do have to do it one "chat" at a time though. Go to the chat, tap on the person's name to pull up their profile, and scroll to the bottom and there's a "export chat" button. It'll zip it up (you have the option of with or without media) and can then get options of where/how to send it to. Another app, etc. I airdrop it to one of my macs and then from there it gets copied to my NAS.

It's not automated but it's still far more straightforward so it's what I use.

How to save all whatsapp messages?

A while back I had uploaded the history of my talk to a contact and when I downloaded it I realized not even half of the messages were there.

It was okay in the past but now I want to save my history from beginning to end, with not even one message left out.

Note: I don't want to make a backup to recover on whatsapp later, I want to save the text and put it on a pendrive to later read without whatsapp.

🆘 Lost Your WhatsApp Messages with No Backup? Here's a Last-Resort Way to Recover Them

Posted by chatarchive · in r/ChatArchive · 3 months ago

If you lost your WhatsApp messages — due to a phone change, accidental deletion, or a banned account — and don’t have a cloud backup, don’t lose hope just yet.

There’s one powerful, often overlooked option:
👉 Ask friends or group members to export their chats with you.

You can then import these exports into the Chat Archive app and view the conversation history — beautifully preserved, even if it’s not from your own device.

Step 1: Ask a Friend to Export the Chat

Ask a trusted contact to:

Open the chat or group with you in WhatsApp
Tap the name at the top to open chat info
Scroll down and tap Export Chat
Choose “Include Media” if you want photos, voice notes, etc.
Select “Save to Files” or send the .zip file to you directly

What’s Inside the Exported Chat File?

The export comes as a .zip file containing:

A .txt file with the full message history
Any selected media files (photos, videos, stickers, voice notes)
All messages are timestamped and include the sender's name

This format is universal and doesn't depend on the original device or account. It works even if your number is no longer active.

Step 2: Import the File into Chat Archive Save the .zip file to your iPhone (e.g., via AirDrop or Files) Open Chat Archive and tap “Import Chat” Select the .zip file Done! The full conversation is now available to browse and search You’ll see:

The entire conversation exactly as it appeared Senders, timestamps, and media in the right place Voice notes with optional transcription A clean, private, offline view of your lost chat

A Note on Privacy Your chats are stored only on your device. Chat Archive doesn’t collect or upload any data. You can even use it without internet access.

Final Thoughts While this isn’t a full account restore, it’s often enough to:

Recover key memories, photos, or documents Get your group chat history back Find voice notes or addresses you thought were gone forever If you’re missing a critical message, try this — and get a little piece of your history back.

[TUTORIAL] How to backup whatsapp chats and media

Posted by Rc202402 · in r/DataHoarder · 4 years ago

As this gets asked often here, here's a quick tutorial on how to backup your chats (both root and non root)

How to backup Whatsapp Chats on Any/Non-Rooted/Non-Jailbroken device

You'll need:

Enough internet to upload your backup to your Google Drive (Chats only)
A linux/mac/windows/android device capable of running python3 with gui.
Patience

Instructions:

Download python3.7 (recommended) on your device. On android use termux with gui if you know how to. On Linux/Mac/Windows you can search google how to install it. Version 3.7 and 3.8 is recommended for less trouble.
Check "Install pip" during installation.
Download https://github.com/B16f00t/whapa/archive/master.zip. It's a open-source tool that fetches your google drive backups for you. If you're interested you can look into the code too. (It's not my code)
Unzip the folder and go inside the folder. Open a terminal/command shell/powershell inside the folder and run pip install -r ./doc/requirements.txt
Edit the config.cfg inside cfg folder with your data.
Now run the gui by typing python whapa-gui.py or run the bat file if on windows.
A gui window should pop and you can now go to the Ghadori tab
You can now download your chat backups from google drive
This tool will allow you to view the chats as well. The database file is your chat backup and you should now keep it safe. Cloud storage like mega is recommended.

How to backup Whatsapp Chats on Rooted device

Method 1:

Required:

Titanium backup for android or OandBackup
Patience

Instructions:

Install Titanium backup / Oandbackup
Search for whatsapp
Backup
It should create a backup archive (zip/tar.gz file). Extract it to obtain your key and unencrypted messages database.

Method 2:

Required:

A File manager that supports root (FX, and Xplore suggested)
Patience

Instructions:

Open the file manager and grant root permissions.
Open /data/data/com.whatsapp root folder
Copy all files there / zip it to sdcard (internal storage).
The files should contain key and unencrypted message database.

Hope this helps anyone who searches for it :)

I am sorry to report that as I was fearing google drive stores only an encrypted db of the chats (Databases/msgstore.db.crypt12), just as the external/normal storage WhatsApp from the Android phones (which is fully accessible and you can just copy via a USB cable or any app like foldersync or even the rsync/rclone from termux, etc.).

So you still need a rooted phone for Android (to get either the key or the db in plain text), no other way. I've read that for iPhone you can do local backups which you can explore and find the key/db there but I have no experience with that.

how to backup whatsapp messages

Here are key considerations for backing up WhatsApp messages:

Backup Method:
- Cloud Backup: Use Google Drive for Android or iCloud for iPhone to back up your messages automatically.
- Local Backup: WhatsApp also creates local backups on your device, which can be useful if you need to restore messages without cloud access.
Backup Frequency:
- Set your backup frequency to daily, weekly, or monthly based on your messaging habits. Daily backups are ideal for frequent users.
Storage Space:
- Ensure you have enough storage space in your cloud account (Google Drive/iCloud) to accommodate your backups.
End-to-End Encryption:
- Remember that while backups are encrypted, the data in cloud storage may not be. Consider this if privacy is a concern.
Restoration Process:
- Familiarize yourself with the restoration process in case you need to recover your messages. This typically involves reinstalling WhatsApp and following prompts to restore from backup.

Steps to Backup WhatsApp Messages:

For Android:

Open WhatsApp and tap on the three dots in the top right corner.
Go to Settings > Chats > Chat backup.
Tap on Back up to Google Drive and select your backup frequency.
Choose the Google account you want to use for backup.
Tap Back Up to start the backup process.

For iPhone:

Open WhatsApp and go to Settings.
Tap on Chats > Chat Backup.
Tap Back Up Now to create an immediate backup.
You can also enable Auto Backup and select your backup frequency.

Recommendation: Regularly check your backup settings to ensure they are functioning correctly, and consider manually backing up before switching devices or reinstalling the app. This way, you can avoid losing important conversations.
