UI looks gorgeous.

How do you actually access the chat data? Didn’t realize this was even possible.

Hi @statictype, The app itself is not acessing the chat data.

- User should export the chat data within WhatsApp and save the exported zip file on the phones storage. - Then in Charty App, selecting the exported file initiates the calculation.

Bought it. Zipped past the instruction to download the chat history for this App to crunch. Now, when I want to actually use the App, I have no idea how to download WhatsApp Chat separately and neither does this App have an instruction to do it!

Hi @Brajeshwar, Firstly thank you for choosing to downloading app.

- Inside the app at the information page and also at the first opening of the app there is an instruction for usage info for the app.

- You should export the chat data within WhatsApp and save the exported zip file on the phone's storage.

- Then in Charty App, select the exported file and touch to "Prepare my Report" button to view your results.

If you have any further problems, please do not hesitate to getting in touch with me.

Hi everyone,

I made an iOS app for visualizing your WhatsApp chats. It's completely secure, all of your data stays in your phone. There is no server side so, no internet connection is needed.

I would be very happy if you contribute by downloading and trying it.

No Android version?

Hi, sadly for now, it is only an iOS application.

Fun, well done, and I like the copper/rose gold colour scheme.

Hi @stereo, thank you for your lovely comment.

Perfect!

Congrats! UI looks nice. Keep up the good work.

The name Charty is already taken on the App Store by an app that integrates with Siri Shortcuts. OP is an IP thief.

Are you the developer of that app? This is a strong reaction over a rather unoriginal name.

Hi @dubrocks,

I'm a little sorry for calling me a thief but my intension was naive.

I've seen that app you mention after releasing my own app. As you said, that application was an Siri Shortcuts integration app, after seeing that the domains are different I made the decision to continue with the same name.
