Chat Wrapped: the story mode for your WhatsApp stats

By Julian

If you have a big chat history, a wall of numbers doesn’t help much. I wanted a way to feel the story, not just read the stats. That’s why Chat Wrapped exists.

It’s the story mode inside WhatStats. It takes your WhatsApp export and turns it into a clean, swipeable recap you can fly through in seconds — or share as an image/video when it actually looks good.

Why a story view?

Because context matters. Your chat isn’t a spreadsheet. It’s bursts of conversations, emoji spikes, late-night chaos, and those “why were we texting at 2 AM?” moments.

Chat Wrapped puts that into a flow:

  • High-level highlights first (message totals, activity peaks)
  • Human moments next (who starts chats, who replies fastest, who ghosts)
  • Personality & emoji layers at the end

It feels like a recap, not a report.

What you’ll see in the story

The exact cards vary by chat size, but the core arc is consistent:

  • Total messages + timeline spikes
  • Most active people and days
  • Conversation dynamics (starters, response time, ghosting)
  • Emoji trends and moods
  • Relationship patterns (the duo that talks most, the one-sided convos)

Here’s a peek at the flow:

And the deeper personality/emojis section:

Private by design

This is important: everything runs locally on your device. No uploads. No servers. Your chats stay on your phone, always.

That means you get the recap, without giving your messages to anyone else.

Sharing without the cringe

Once the story is done, you can export it as:

  • A single image (perfect for a quick share)
  • A full video of the story

Image preview looks like this:

How to try it

  1. Export a WhatsApp chat without media
  2. Share it to WhatStats
  3. Open the chat and tap Chat Wrapped

If you’ve never seen it before, the onboarding shows you exactly where it is:

The point

Chat Wrapped is what I wish I had for my own chats: fast, visual, and actually fun. It’s not trying to overanalyze — it just shows you the story you already lived.

If you want the full flow (including exports and all story cards), grab the app and try it on a chat you care about.
