WhatsApp year in review: how to make your end-of-year recap
To make your end-of-year WhatsApp recap, export the chat that defined your year and generate a WhatsApp Wrapped: you get a visual summary with who talked most, emojis and standout moments, ready to share on stories.
The end of the year is the perfect time to look back — and your WhatsApp chats hold a good part of the year’s stories. A recap turns that history into a visual, nostalgic summary, great to share with everyone involved.
Pick the right chat
It can be the chat with your closest person, the family group or the friends group. The busier the conversation, the richer the recap.
How to create it
- Export the year’s chat (without media)
- Upload the file to ZapWrapp
- Get the animated recap in seconds
- Share it on stories and tag everyone
