WaChat2PDF - WhatsApp chat → beautiful PDF, 100% in your browser

by
WhatsApp exports a messy .txt file nobody can read. WaChat2PDF converts it into a pixel-perfect PDF with real chat bubbles, timestamps, and photos — exactly like the app. The difference: everything runs inside your browser. Your chat never touches any server. ✓ Supports .txt and .zip (with media) ✓ Group chats, Unicode, all emojis ✓ Free for 300 messages, no account

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Shankha, founder of WaChat2PDF — and I built this after running into a genuinely frustrating problem. A few years ago, I needed to preserve an important WhatsApp conversation for legal documentation. WhatsApp exported it as a wall of raw text — completely unreadable. Every tool I found either uploaded my private messages to unknown servers, required a paid account, or produced ugly output. So I built WaChat2PDF. The core principle: your chat file never leaves your device. Everything is parsed inside your browser using JavaScript. For HTML exports — 100% offline. For PDF, only the formatted layout (not your raw messages) briefly touches our rendering server and is deleted immediately. What makes it different from every other WhatsApp converter: → Output looks exactly like WhatsApp — real chat bubbles, timestamps, color-coded senders → ZIP exports with media: photos align to the exact message where they were sent → Full Unicode: Hindi, Arabic, Bengali, every emoji — all render perfectly → Free for 300 messages, no account ever required Built this solo, bootstrapped from West Bengal, India. Already helping lawyers preserving evidence, couples printing anniversary chat books, and HR teams archiving workplace records. Would love your honest feedback. Happy to answer anything about how the browser-only parsing works or the privacy model. 🙏
