Export text messages for documentation

An export fit for documentation should be clean, searchable, and clear on sender and time — without legal promises iExport can't make.

What a good documentation export includes

  • Clear timeline with accurate dates and times.
  • Sender identification for every message.
  • Attachments where present in the source.
  • Page numbers and a conversation identifier.
  • Searchable text (the PDF is not an image of text).

Step by step

  1. Preserve the original file (chat.db, .txt, or .xml) — do not edit it.
  2. Open iExport and load the file.
  3. Pick conversation and range.
  4. Preview. Verify dates and senders look correct.
  5. Download PDF for archive, and HTML if you also need search.

Disclaimer

iExport exports what's in your source file. We can't guarantee acceptance as legal evidence — that depends on context, opposing party, and court. Treat it as orderly documentation, not proof of authenticity.

iExport makes no guarantee that the export is accepted as evidence. The file is suitable for orderly documentation, review, and archiving — legal value is determined by the court and opposing party.

Can I remove messages before export?
iExport exports what you selected. If used as documentation, preserve the original source file unchanged and don't edit the export.
