Hello,
I am trying to import my chat history to do some analysis on it. However my messages are turning weird, for instance, an apostrophy " ' " looks like it is converting to " ’".
I am new to this, but I think it has to do with encoding or something?
Can anyone point me in the right direction.

You can get the text from the json file using fileread but you need to decode it. This can be done using jsondecode. Follow the steps as indicated in this link to parse json file without any encoding issues.
