The process has stalled at “Loading chat list”. Why is there no progress?

This is probably because your ZIP file is too large for our software to process (more than 4GB). In this case, please follow this tutorial to reduce the size of your ZIP file (best done on a PC) and upload the reduced file.

Can I use the zapptales app to upload my Facebook Messenger chat?

No, it is not possible to use the zapptales app to upload your Facebook Messenger chat. Please follow the steps in this step-by-step tutorial exactly to upload your Facebook Messenger chat. We recommend you do this on a PC, because your mobile might be out of its depth with very large chats.

How do I upload my Facebook Messenger chat to zapptales to turn it into a book?

We have compiled this easy step-by-step tutorial to show you how to upload your Facebook Messenger Chat to zapptales 😊

I have used the Android app and exported my chat without media – but there is still a part of my chat missing! What can I do?

If you’ve already sent the chat without media and it’s still incomplete, you’ve probably reached the limit for the WhatsApp chat export with Android. Unfortunately, Android limits the export to the last 40 thousand messages. This is a limit we cannot influence. However, there are different options to work around it:

 

Option 1:
In case your chat partner has an iPhone you could try to export the chat with it. With an iPhone, it’s no problem to upload the whole chat.


Option 2:
Have you exported the chat to yourself via e-mail earlier? It would then be possible to merge the two parts.

Option 3:
You could copy the messages from web.whatsapp.com and upload them to zapptales. This is how it works:

Who is your delivery partner?

The book you print of your WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram or Telegram chat is delivered to you with DHL or UPS.

We have specifically chosen DHL and UPS as our logistics partners for its reliability. All parcels are insured and can be tracked – nationally and internationally.

We have deliberately chosen quality over budget – the personal nature of your very own WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, iMessage, Threema or Telegram chat as a book is worth it!
