Problems

There is no Statistics in the menu.

Your iPhone may run an iOS older than 17. Update iOS.

No messages yet

The chat has no messages to count yet. Wait for the import to finish.

Some messages have no date and are left out of the charts.

Charts over time use only messages with a date. To add one, see Edit a message's text or time.

The names are wrong.

See Edit the chat name and people's names.

None of these match.
