I am looking for the Whatsapp chats offline viewer. I would like to store my chats on my laptop and view it without needing Whatsapp on my phone. Currently I know that chats can be viewed (and chat) on web.whatsapp.com, and I found this app https://andreas-mausch.de/whatsapp-viewer/ https://andreas-mausch.de/whatsapp-viewer/ which makes it possible on Windows (and it seems outdated because of lots of bugs on GitHub). But I would like to view chats on Linux computer, it could also be an web app. Do you know such application?

light way, but not available everywhere: export the chats one by one, as per https://faq.whatsapp.com/android/chats/how-to-save-your-chat-history/?lang=en https://faq.whatsapp.com/android/chats/how-to-save-your-chat... Saves them as text files, copy them off the phone. hard way: root the phone, copy the database, decrypt it with https://stackpointer.io/security/decrypt-whatsapp-crypt12-database-messages/559/ https://stackpointer.io/security/decrypt-whatsapp-crypt12-da... and the key on the phone. The decrypted db files are overengineered sqlite databases.
