When a conversation needs to outlast the chat

Some threads are worth keeping: a family exchange, an agreement with a landlord, a record you may need later. Text Export saves conversations from messaging apps on your iPhone into files you control.

Formats and apps

Export to PDF, CSV or plain text. The app works with conversations from SMS and iMessage as well as WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram DMs and Telegram.

Use a PDF when someone else has to read the conversation, and a CSV when you want to sort or search it in a spreadsheet.
