How to Export Your Viber Chat History

 in Applications  tagged Chat / export / history / message / messages / viber by

Need to save a record of your Viber chats? It’s easy! Just follow these simple steps to export your messages:

  1. Open Viber on your mobile device.
  2. Go to More (usually found in the bottom-right corner).
  3. Click on Settings.
  4. Tap Calls and Messages.
  5. Select Email message history.

Alternatively, you can open this link directly from your mobile device:

viber://more/email_message_history_on

This action will allow you to save a zip file with all your conversations, which you can later share using other conventional methods.

Please note that the export file will only contain text messages and no media (photos, videos, etc.). If you need to save media, you’ll have to back those up separately.

That’s it! Your chat history will be emailed to the address you choose, and you can keep it safely stored for future reference.

The shield is adorned with digital accents like a binary code halo and a keyboard pattern. The acronym 'CEH' for 'Cypriot Ethical Hackers' is boldly positioned across the shield, with a cybernetic font, set against a background that hints at a digital network.

A note on the Chrome Plugin “Fast Delete Messages” for deleting all Facebook Messenger Messages without deleting the conversations

 in Applications  tagged Chat / Chrome / Chromium / Conversation / Delete All / facebook / message / Messenger / Plugin by

Recently, we used the “Fast Delete Messages” on Chromium browser to delete all messages of a Facebook Messenger account without deleting the chats themselves.

To our surprise, we noticed two observations:

  1. The plugin worked extremely fast!
    We thought it would take a few minutes (as it would delete messages one by one), but it finished in less than a few seconds in reality.
  2. After the plugin finished, the list of conversations was empty!
    Initially, we thought a bug was in the plugin, and it had deleted all conversations.
    Following some research, it appeared that the conversations were not deleted, but Messenger hid them!
    We verified that the conversations were hidden as whenever anyone would send a message in a conversation or group chat, the conversation would appear, and it would work normally.
