Not really familiar with its internal way. But yes my brother utilizes a tool for the same and the name of it is Export Contacts for Whatsapp, this is an android app available free of cost on google play store which makes your work go easy and quick.


The app fetches all your active WhatsApp contacts which are available, makes up a different excel sheet and exports it to your required drive or anywhere you wish. Hopefully, it helps!

You can follow these directions to easily export your contacts:

  1. Open your WhatsApp on your phone.
  2. Click on the WhatsApp web page.
  3. This will open a camera or scanner on your phone.
  4. You'll need to scan the barcode that appears on the web page.
  5. Open and expand your contact list on the left side of your screen.
  6. On the toolbar, you'll see a booklet, this is for creating a CSV list or photo address book.
  7. Now all you have to do is select the option to export your contact list. You can export the list to a HTML file.

Unfortunately, WhatsApp does not have an option to export only your WhatsApp contacts. However, you can export all of your contacts from your phone's address book by following the steps below:

1. Open your phone's address book/contacts app.

2. Tap the menu button (usually 3 dots or lines) and select “Export”.

3. Select the file format you wish to use for the export (e.g. vCard or CSV).

4. Choose a location to save the exported contacts file.

5. Open the exported contacts file and delete the entries which aren't WhatsApp contacts.

Alternatively, you can use a third-party app such as Contacts Sync for WhatsApp, which allows you to easily sync your phone contacts with your WhatsApp contacts.

There is no way to easily export your WhatsApp contacts without first editing your WhatsApp settings. To do this, you need to:

1. Open your WhatsApp account.

2. In the top left corner of your account, click on the three lines that look like this: "In-ORY Number": 

3. Click on the " preferences " tab.

4. Under the " messages " tab, adjust the number of messages to at least 10.

5. Under the " messages " tab, adjust the number of channels to at least 4.

6. Under the " messages " tab, adjust the number of chats to at least 2.

7. Click on the " exports " tab.
