If you store important information in the cloud, value letters, posts on social networks and correspondence in chats, a copy of this data may come in handy.
Telegram data. You can download correspondence in this messenger only through the Telegram Desktop application for Windows, macOS or Linux.

Whatsapp data. In the messenger, you can request information about account settings or save chats.
Copies of chats are automatically saved to your smartphone every day. But you can store correspondence in the cloud or on your computer:
You can save all correspondence in "Settings" → "Chats" → "Backup" → "Create a copy". In the same place, select automatic saving and its frequency; | This is what backup settings look like on Android phones | To save personal information in the "Account" section in the settings, click "Request account details" | Click "Request Report" and wait 3-4 days |
Viber data. To save a copy to the cloud, go to "More" → "Settings" → "Account" → "Backup". It can be run manually or on a schedule.
You can save a copy of your account data in the section "Privacy" → "Personal data" → "Data request". The application will tell you that it will take up to 14 days for them, but I received the file in seven minutes.
If you want to save messages on your computer and not depend on the Internet, you will have to install the old version of Viber - no higher than 10.5. It still had such an opportunity in the "Settings" menu → "Calls and messages" → "Send message history". For example, you can send an archive via email. But do not forget to make a cloud backup first - you will have to restore it in the installed old version of Viber.
The old version of the messenger may not be installed on your smartphone. If saving the archive outside the cloud is critical, find an old phone and install the application on it. For example, I managed to install version 10.5 on Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro.
You can find an old Viber by searching for Viber 10.5 apk in a search engine, but download app installers from unofficial resources at your own risk - they may be broken or infected.

You can also split the archive into parts of 1, 2, 4, 10 or 50 GB. This will not affect the speed of creating an archive. For example, my data archive took up about 30 GB, excluding YouTube videos.
When the file export is complete, you will receive an email from Google Archiver with the subject "Your Google Account data is ready to download." You can immediately download them using the button in the email or click "Go to export management" and click the "Download" button there. Archives are available for a week after receiving the letter, after which you will have to create them again.
