Fake WhatsApp Conversation History Generator
This generator recreates the WhatsApp Chats screen: the list of recent conversations you see when you open the app. Add contacts and groups, write each last message, set timestamps, unread badges and ticks, pin or mute chats, and download the whole screen as an image. It is built for UI mockups, app demos, tutorials and storytelling. Nothing is sent, and no WhatsApp account is involved.
How to make a fake WhatsApp chat list
- Pick a device. Choose iPhone, Android or Desktop (WhatsApp Web) in the toolbar. Each one uses its own WhatsApp layout.
- Edit the conversations. Open a chat card to change the name, photo, time and last message. Use Add to create new chats and the arrows to reorder them.
- Set the details. Give chats an unread count, choose who sent the last message, pick sent, delivered or read ticks, and mark chats as pinned, muted, favourite or typing.
- Adjust the screen. Pick the active filter chip (All, Unread, Favourites or Groups), set the archived count, and use Settings for the status bar, battery and dark mode.
- Download the image. Export a clean PNG of the screen, without the phone frame, ready for a deck, design file or article.
What you can customize
- Chats: any number of contacts and groups, with photos or the default WhatsApp avatar
- Last message: text, photo, video, voice note, document, sticker or missed call
- Group previews: “Name: message” style previews for group senders
- Status: unread badges, read ticks, typing indicator, pinned and muted icons
- Screen: filter chips, archived row and the Chats tab badge, which counts unread chats automatically
- Device: iPhone, Android and WhatsApp Web, in light or dark mode
How the WhatsApp chat list works
Getting these details right is what makes a chat list mockup look believable:
| Detail | How WhatsApp shows it |
|---|---|
| Order | Pinned chats sit on top (up to three), then the rest sorted by the newest message |
| Timestamps | Time for today, “Yesterday”, the weekday within the last week, then a full date |
| Unread chats | Green time and a green badge with the number of unread messages |
| Your last message | Ticks appear before the preview text instead of a sender name |
| Muted chats | A crossed-out bell icon next to the unread badge |
What people use it for
App and product design. Show how a business account, chatbot or notification flow looks in a real inbox, next to everyday chats.
Tutorials and support docs. Explain features such as archived chats, filters or pinned conversations with a clean, privacy-safe screenshot.
Teaching digital safety. Illustrate what a suspicious message from an unknown number looks like among normal chats. Label it clearly as an example.
Film, video and fiction. Show a character's phone on screen without exposing anyone's real contacts or messages.
Responsible use
This tool is for honest mockups, design work and creative projects. Please do not use it to impersonate a real person, fabricate evidence, spread scams or harass anyone. When you share a mock screen outside a design context, say that it is a mockup. The tool only draws an image: it does not connect to WhatsApp or read anyone's chats. Laws differ by country, and this page is general information, not legal advice.
Frequently asked questions
What is a fake WhatsApp conversation history generator?
It is an online tool that draws a mock version of the WhatsApp Chats screen, the list of recent conversations you see when you open the app. You decide which chats appear, what the last message says, the time, unread counts and ticks, then export the screen as an image.
Is it free to use?
Yes. The generator runs in your browser, needs no account and adds no watermark to the downloaded PNG.
Can I show iPhone, Android and WhatsApp Web layouts?
Yes. Switch between iPhone, Android and Desktop in the toolbar. Each layout follows its own WhatsApp design: the large “Chats” title and bottom tab bar on iPhone, the green WhatsApp title and floating new-chat button on Android, and the three-pane layout on WhatsApp Web.
Can I add group chats, voice notes and missed calls?
Yes. Each conversation can be a group with a named sender, and the last message can be text, a photo, a video, a voice note, a document, a sticker or a missed call, each with the matching WhatsApp icon.
Does the tool connect to my WhatsApp account?
No. It only draws an image in your browser. It cannot read, send or change any real WhatsApp messages, and nothing you type is uploaded.
Can a generated chat list be used as proof?
No. A generated screen has no link to any real account or message, so it can never serve as evidence. Use it for design, demos, teaching and creative work only.
