Your WhatsApp
chats, backed up
and locked down.

Chat Keeper imports the conversations you export from WhatsApp, keeps them behind a passcode or Face ID, and shows you what's actually in them — every message and every photo, counted.

Per chat: Message & media counts

Chat Keeper's chat list, each conversation showing its message and media count.

Features

A proper home for your chat history.

Chat Keeper takes the export WhatsApp already knows how to make and turns it into an archive you can keep, lock and understand.

Every chat, with the numbers

Each conversation lists how many messages and how many photos, videos and voice notes it holds — so you can see at a glance which chats are worth keeping.

Locked with a passcode you choose

Four kinds of passcode, from a quick four digits to a full alphanumeric one — plus Touch ID and Face ID, and optional caching so you aren't retyping it every minute.

Statistics worth reading

Message counts, emoji counts and more, so you can see how a conversation actually went.

Import in a few taps

Export a chat from WhatsApp and send it straight to Chat Keeper, with or without its media.

Not on WhatsApp? Paste it in

Add a conversation by hand from the + button and keep it beside the imported ones.

How it works

From WhatsApp to Chat Keeper in a few taps.

Chat Keeper reads the export WhatsApp already knows how to make — there's no setup to get through first.

Export the chat

In WhatsApp, swipe the conversation to the left and tap More, then Export Chat.

In WhatsApp

Choose with or without media

Bring the photos and videos along, or leave them out and keep the archive small. Either works.

Attach Media

Send it to Chat Keeper

Pick Chat Keeper in the share sheet. The conversation is imported and the counts are ready. Done.

Share sheet

Not on WhatsApp? Tap + on the chat overview to add a conversation by hand — paste it in and it sits alongside the imported ones.

Security

Nobody opens it
but you.

Chat Keeper sits behind its own lock, separate from the one on your phone. You decide how strict it should be.

Four passcode styles. Four digits, six digits, a custom numeric code, or a full alphanumeric one.
Touch ID and Face ID. Unlock with the same gesture you already use everywhere else.
Optional caching. Stay unlocked for 15 minutes so a quick look doesn't mean entering it again.
