WA Folders: Chat Folders, Search & Export for WhatsApp Web

Sort WhatsApp Web chats into folders, search your messages, export to HTML, CSV or Markdown. Local only. Free, or $4.99 once.

WA Folders adds folders, message search and export to WhatsApp Web in Chrome. Folders, notes and the search index stay on this computer. There is no account to create. FOLDERS Sort your chats into folders such as Family, Work and Clients, or any name you like. Each folder becomes a tab above the chat list, with markers for unread chats, replies you owe and reminders that are due. Click a chat inside a folder and it opens. On first use, the Get started card makes your first folder in one tap. SEARCH Search chat names, your private notes and the messages WA Folders has seen in chats you opened. Filter by folder, notes or links, and save searches you run often. With Pro, Load whole chat brings in a chat's full history so search covers all of it. EXPORT Export the open chat to HTML, CSV (opens cleanly in Excel), Markdown or JSON. Voice notes, photos and files are labelled in the export. Pro adds whole-chat export from the first message, a whole folder in one file, and password-protected files. PRIVACY - Your folders, notes and search index are stored in chrome.storage.local on this computer. - No account, no analytics, no ads, and no WA Folders server. - It never sends a message for you. No bulk send, broadcasts or auto-replies. - Works on web.whatsapp.com only, not in the phone app. Not affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta. PRICE Free, with no time limit: 5 folders, 5 search hits, 3 exports a day. Free also caps reminders (2), quick replies (3), rules (1), AI answers (3 a day), deal-board chats (5), saved searches (1), voice-to-text (5 a day) and translation (20 a day). Pro is a one-time $4.99 payment, with no subscription and no trial. It removes those limits and unlocks Load whole chat, whole-folder export and password-protected files. After paying you get a license key by email; paste it in the toolbar popup. ALSO INCLUDED - Follow-ups: "remind me if they don't reply in 1 day". The reminder clears itself when they answer. - Private notes and quick replies on any chat. Quick replies go into the message box; you press Enter yourself. - Voice notes to text, and translation of messages between Portuguese, English and Spanish (daily free caps above). - AI agent access: Claude Desktop, Cursor or another MCP app on your computer can read the folders you allow. Off until you turn it on in Settings. - Privacy blur for names and messages, command palette (Ctrl+K), deal board, backup and restore. - Available in English, Español, Português (Brasil), हिन्दी, Bahasa Indonesia and العربية.
