For From Inbox<\/strong>: set the From<\/strong> and To<\/strong> dates (today is selected by default), click Load Recipients<\/strong>, then search by name, username or chat ID and tick the contacts you want. Select all shown<\/strong> covers the visible rows only, and Load more contacts<\/strong> keeps your existing selections. The list shows each person once, however many messages they sent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Custom Recipient<\/strong>: enter either a numeric Chat ID<\/strong> (digits only, found in your Inbox or Delivery Report) or a Phone Number<\/strong> with country code and no plus sign or spaces. This sends to one person at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
