Saying your final farewell to WhatsApp and moving to Telegram? Wouldn't it be great if you could take all your chat messages and media with you? Well, it's possible to import individual WhatsApp chats right into Telegram!

WhatsApp's backup and restore feature is very limited. It doesn't even work between Android and iPhone without a third-party tool. But Telegram has an import feature that lets you transfer conversations from other messaging apps like WhatsApp, Line, and KaKaoTalk on a per-chat basis. While this sounds tedious, it gets the job done. In this guide, we will be focussing on WhatsApp.

Once the chat is imported, the messages will show up for both parties. The imported messages will be added to the bottom of the chat, but they will carry their original timestamp.

All you have to do is export the chat from WhatsApp and import it into Telegram. Here's how it works on Android and iPhone.

Import WhatsApp Chat History in Telegram for Android

Open the WhatsApp app and go to the conversation you want to export to Telegram.

Here, tap the three-dot menu icon found in the top-right corner.

Now, select the "More" button.

From here, choose the "Export Chat" option.

WhatsApp will now ask you if you want to export the chat with or without media. The export with media can be a couple of hundred MBs, depending on your chat. If you want to keep it lightweight, go with the "Without Media" option.

From the share sheet, tap the "Telegram" app shortcut.

You'll now see all your conversations in the Telegram app. Here, choose the conversation where you want to import the messages.

From the pop-up message, tap the "Import" button.

The Telegram app will start importing your chat. Once it's done, you'll see the completion prompt. Here, tap the "Done" button.

The Telegram conversation will be updated with all the WhatsApp data. It will show you the original timestamps from WhatsApp as well.

Import WhatsApp Chat History in Telegram for iPhone

The steps are slightly different when it comes to the iPhone. Open the WhatsApp app on your iPhone and navigate to the chat you want to export to Telegram.

Select Contact from WhatsApp

Here, tap the contact's profile name found at the top of the screen.

Scroll down and tap the "Export Chat" option.

WhatsApp will ask you if you want to export the chat with or without media. To keep the export light, choose the "Without Media" option.

From the share sheet, choose the "Telegram" app.

Search and choose the contact that you want to import the chat into.

From the pop-up message, confirm the action by selecting the "Import" option.

Telegram will now import the chat. Once the process is complete, tap the "Done" button.

You will find the WhatsApp messages in the Telegram chat, with their old timestamps.

How to Open the Hidden Scientific Calculator on iPhone

Posted: 30 Jan 2021 10:53 AM PST

An Apple iPhone running the Calculator app in horizontal scientific mode.

If you've ever wanted a scientific calculator app on iPhone, don't fret—your iPhone already comes with one built in. Apple's Calculator app includes a scientific mode that has been hiding in plain sight since 2008, as The Verge recently noted. Here's how to use it.

First, open the "Calculator" app. If you can't find it, swipe downward with one finger in the middle of the screen to see a search bar. Type "calc" and select the "Calculator" app icon when it appears.

Open Spotlight search on iPhone, type "calc," then tap the Calculator app icon.

Once Calculator opens, you'll probably see a screen like this. It's a simple interface with a grid of numbers and basic mathematical operators. Hardly scientific at all!

To enter scientific calculator mode, rotate your iPhone 90 degrees until it is in landscape orientation. The Calculator app will automatically adjust to fit the wide orientation of the screen, and new scientific calculator buttons will be added to the display.

If your calculator doesn't change into scientific mode when you rotate your iPhone, then it's likely that you have orientation lock enabled. To disable it, pull up Control Center and tap the orientation lock icon until it is no longer highlit.

On iPhone, open Control Center and disable orientation lock.

Once orientation lock is turned off, rotate your iPhone again while running the Calculator app, and you'll see the scientific mode in all its widescreen glory. A brave new world of more complex math has now opened up to you. Have fun with exponents!

How to Disable Conversation View in Gmail

Posted: 30 Jan 2021 08:25 AM PST

Gmail tries to help you navigate huge email chains by grouping replies together in a single conversation thread where replies are listed sequentially. If you want to see each reply individually, however, you'll need to switch this off. Here's how.

Disable Conversation View in Gmail on Windows PC or Mac

To disable "conversation view" (or grouped email threads) in Gmail on your Windows 10 PC or Mac, you'll need to do so from the Gmail website. Start by opening the Gmail website in your browser and signing in.

Once you've signed in, click the settings gear icon in the top-right corner.

On the Gmail webpage, click the settings cog icon in the top-right.

This will open the "Quick Settings" menu panel. Scroll through the menu options and uncheck the "Conversation View" checkbox at the bottom.

In Gmail's "Quick Settings" panel, uncheck the "Conversation View" option to disable this view.

Gmail will need to reload at this point, so press the "Reload" button in the pop-up box to allow this.

With "Conversation View" disabled, click "Reload" to reload the Gmail interface.

Once it's been refreshed, your Gmail inbox will change, separating each email reply from any linked email chains.  Alternatively, you can disable conversation view from the main Gmail settings menu.

To do this, select the settings gear icon, then click the "See All Settings" option.

In the Gmail web interface, click the settings gear icon > See all settings option.

In the "General" tab of the Gmail "Settings" menu, scroll down to the "Conversation View" section, then click the "Conversation View Off" option.

Click the "Conversation View Off" option in the Gmail settings menu to disable the feature.

Once that's selected, scroll down to the bottom and click "Save Changes" to confirm the change.

Click "Save Settings" to apply the new email display settings in Gmail.

Gmail will automatically reload your inbox, showing each email separated from any previously linked threads.

Disable Conversation View in Gmail on Mobile Devices

If you're using the Gmail app on your iPhone, iPad, or Android device, you can quickly disable conversation view in the app's settings menu.

Disable Conversation View in Gmail on Android

To disable conversation view on Android, open the Gmail app and tap the hamburger menu icon in the top-left corner.

In the Gmail app on mobile devices, tap the hamburger menu icon in the top-left corner.

From the overflow menu, tap the "Settings" option at the bottom.

In the Gmail app menu, tap the "Settings" option.

In the "Settings" menu, you'll see a list of Google accounts that you're signed in to.

Android users will see a "General Settings" option, which allows you to change settings for all accounts at once (including conversation view). Tap this option if you want to disable conversation view for all signed-in email accounts.

Otherwise, select one of the account email addresses from the list instead. This will only apply the change to that account, leaving conversation view enabled for other email inboxes.

In the Gmail app "Settings" menu, tap the "General Settings" option. Alternatively, tap one of the account emails listed.

In the "General Settings" menu (or individual settings menu for a specific email account), scroll down and find the "Conversation View" option.

Tap the checkbox to disable the setting.

In the "General Settings" menu in the Gmail app (or in the individual settings menu for an email account), tap the "Conversation View" checkbox to disable the feature.

The change will be applied immediately, so tap back and return to your inbox. This will remove email threading and ensure that each email you receive is listed separately.

Disable Conversation View in Gmail on iPhone and iPad

The steps to disable conversation view in the Gmail app on iPhones and iPads is similar to the steps for Android users, but the menus differ slightly. For instance, if you use an iPhone or iPad, you'll only see email accounts listed, and won't be able to disable conversation view for all accounts at once.

To start, open the Gmail app on your Apple device and tap the hamburger menu icon in the top-left corner.

In the Gmail app on iPhone and iPad devices, tap the hamburger menu icon in the top-left.

From the menu panel, tap the "Settings" option.

Tap "Settings" in the Gmail menu panel on iPhone or iPad to access the settings menu.

You'll need to tap one of the accounts listed in the "Settings" menu to disable conversation view.

In the "Settings" menu in the iPhone and iPad Gmail app, select one of the signed in accounts listed.

In the settings menu for your chosen email account, tap the slider next to the "Conversation View" option. This will disable email threading immediately.

Tap the "Conversation View" slider in the individual email account settings in the Gmail iPhone and iPad app to disable this setting.

Once the setting has changed, tap back to view your inbox. If you want to apply this change to all accounts, you'll need to repeat these steps for each additional account afterward.
