Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Launch WhatsApp on iPhone 14 Pro

Open WhatsApp from your Home Screen. The A16 Bionic ensures responsive app performance.

iPhone 14 Pro supports iOS 16 and iOS 17, both work excellently with WhatsApp exports.

2

Navigate to Target Chat

Find and open the conversation you want to export using WhatsApp's search or chat list.

ProMotion 120Hz display makes scrolling through long chat lists smooth and responsive.

3

Access Export Option

Tap contact/group name at top, scroll to 'Export Chat' option in the info screen.

Dynamic Island shows active export progress if you switch apps during the process.

4

Select Media Preference

Choose 'Attach Media' for complete chat or 'Without Media' for text-only export.

A16 Bionic's 6-core CPU handles media-heavy exports efficiently without overheating.

5

Monitor Export with Dynamic Island

If on iOS 17, Dynamic Island shows export progress. You can continue using your phone.

Background processing allows you to browse other apps while WhatsApp prepares the export.

6

Save to iCloud or Files

Choose save location: iCloud Drive for cloud access or On My iPhone for local storage.

6GB RAM ensures smooth multitasking even during large file saves.

7

Upload to ChatToPDF

Open Safari or Chrome, navigate to chattopdf.app, and upload your export file.

5G connectivity on iPhone 14 Pro enables fast uploads even for large media-rich exports.

8

Complete Conversion

Select your pricing tier, complete payment via Face ID authentication, receive PDF via email.

Faster Face ID on iPhone 14 Pro speeds up the checkout process.

Common Issues

Dynamic Island showing but export frozen

The export may be processing large media files. Give it 2-3 more minutes. If truly frozen, force close WhatsApp (swipe up from bottom and hold, swipe WhatsApp up) and try again. Ensure 2-3GB free storage.

Phone overheating during export

Large exports can heat up the device. Remove any case, move to cooler environment, pause resource-intensive apps. iPhone 14 Pro's thermal management is excellent, but sustained processing generates heat. Consider exporting without media first.

Always-On Display draining battery during export

Disable Always-On Display temporarily during large exports: Settings > Display & Brightness > Always On Display. This can save 10-15% battery during long export processes.

5G connection dropping during upload

Switch to Wi-Fi for more stable uploads. If you must use cellular, toggle Airplane Mode on/off to reset connection, or switch from 5G to LTE temporarily in Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Voice & Data.

Best Practices

  • Use Wi-Fi 6 for fastest uploads - iPhone 14 Pro fully supports Wi-Fi 6 standard
  • Enable Low Power Mode after initiating export to conserve battery
  • Disable Always-On Display during export to reduce battery consumption
  • Use Dynamic Island to monitor export progress while multitasking
  • Export during charging to maintain battery health for large exports
  • Save to iCloud Drive for automatic backup and cross-device access
  • Close background apps before starting very large exports
  • Update to iOS 17 for best export performance and stability

Limitations to Be Aware Of

Standard WhatsApp Limits Apply

iPhone 14 Pro's power doesn't bypass WhatsApp's 40,000 message (text) or 10,000 message (media) export limits. These are server-side restrictions.

iOS Version Compatibility

iPhone 14 Pro ships with iOS 16 but supports iOS 17+. Some features (like enhanced Dynamic Island export monitoring) require iOS 17 update.

Lightning Port Speed

iPhone 14 Pro uses Lightning connector (USB 2.0 speeds ~480 Mbps), much slower than iPhone 15 Pro's USB-C. Large file transfers to computer take longer.
