What the analyzer measures
Messages, words and share per person, activity by weekday and hour, the busiest days, the longest silence, media, voice notes, stickers and deleted messages, the top emojis, the first and last message, and whether it is a group or a one-to-one chat. Every number is counted straight from the file. There is no AI and no guessing.
- Reply time: a message is a reply when the message right before it came from someone else, at most 24 hours earlier. The reply time is the gap between the two, and each person's figure is the median of their replies. Longer gaps start a new conversation and are not counted.
- Question that got no reply: a message ending with "?" (or the Arabic "؟") with no message from a different person within the time you pick, 4 hours by default. A question asked less than that time before the last message in the export is too recent to tell and is not counted as unanswered.
- Words: counted in written messages only. Photos, videos, voice notes, stickers and deleted messages have no words.
- Longest silence: the longest gap between two messages in the chat.
- Times: days and hours are shown exactly as written in the export, in the time zone of the phone that exported it. System lines such as "joined" or the encryption notice are not counted as messages.
How to export a WhatsApp chat
On iPhone
- Open the chat or group in WhatsApp.
- Tap the contact or group name at the top.
- Scroll down and tap Export Chat, then Without Media (faster) or Attach Media.
- Save the .zip to Files, then choose it on this page.
On Android
- Open the chat or group in WhatsApp.
- Tap the three dots at the top, then More, then Export chat.
- Choose Without media (faster) or Include media.
- Save the file to your phone or send it to yourself, then choose it on this page.
WhatsApp exports at most the latest 40,000 messages without media, or 10,000 with media. To analyze on a computer, send the file to yourself by email or a cloud drive first.
Private by design
This page has no upload. Your browser opens the file and does every count itself, in a background worker on this page. The chat, the names in it and the results are never sent to Spun or anyone else, and nothing is stored after you leave.
We only record that the tool was used, with rough sizes such as "under 100 messages", never anything from inside the chat. Press "Analyze another chat" or close the page to clear the results.
