Some Features of the Tool to Convert Chat Files
Add JSON or JSONL Chat Files
Chat Converter for Mac OS exports chat conversations to commonly used, human readable file formats. It reads chat files saved in both JSON and JSONL structure. Chats exported from any supported application can be added to the software interface without causing any alteration.
Export Chats to 22 File Formats
One tool covers all 22 saving options. Document and data formats cover PST, PDF, HTML, DOCX, PPTX, MHTML, and XML. Spreadsheet formats include XLS, XLSX, XLSM, XLSB, XLT, ODS, OTS, CSV, and TXT. Image options add JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, and SVG.
Supports Batch Chat Conversion
Chat Converter for Mac OS has got two upload options to add the chat files or folders to the software panel for conversion purposes. The options are Select Files and Select Folder, which allow you to choose single JSON files or folders containing unlimited chat conversations. Both options offer batch conversion of chat files.
Preserves Complete Chat Details
The software keeps all conversation details during the chat conversion. Timestamps, sender names, email addresses and full message content are the most important parts of a chat record. The application has been developed in such a way that every detail remains the same even after conversion.
Separate File for Every Chat
The application automatically generates a separate output file for each chat conversation. For example, if your chat database contains 10 conversations, the software will create 10 individual result files. This structure keeps the converted data easy to manage, search and access at any time.

What Customers Are Saying
Marcus Reed
IT Administrator, Washington
I exported my Slack workspace history in JSON format and could not read a single conversation. MacUncle Chat Converter turned the whole folder into clean PDF files in one run. Every timestamp and sender name stayed in place. The tool paid for itself on the first day.

Our team needed Google Chat exports in spreadsheet form for analysis. The tool converted thousands of JSON conversations to XLSX without a single error. The batch mode and the offline working are the two features that made me choose it over online converters.
