Whatsapp store all messages in an encrypted database (pyCrypt) which is very easy to decipher using Python.

You can fetch this database easily on Android, iPhone, Blackberry and dump it into html file. Here(http://geeknizer.com/read-extract-whatsapp-messages-android-iphone-blackberry/) are complete instructions: Read, Extract WhatsApp Messages backup on Android, iPhone, Blackberry
