Sorry TextPort didn't work for you. If you tell us what happened under Settings > Contact Support, we'll look at your import and help you get it working, or help you get a refund.

Helpful

I’m dealing with a situation where my lawyer needs all the text messages from a specific person to use as evidence, and I really didn't know how to gather them all without just taking screenshots. I found this app and I thought it would be complicated to use, but it was super easy; it only took about 10 minutes to compile all the messages, save them as a PDF, and send them to my lawyer.

Nice app

Easy to use

Does exactly what it says it does

Easy to use, even for the slightly technophobic

Quick use

I only needed this app for a short time but I was impressed by its intuitive nature. For text messages, it shows the same time stamp for each message in the same day, as opposed to the true time stamp so keep that in mind. There are editing capabilities, which would be helpful if you needed to be more precise, but I did not.

Thanks, and good tip. Messages shows one time per block on screen, so a screen recording gives each block that time. TextPort's Import from Messages reads the exact time of every message.

Legal Use

This app worked wonders!! No screenshots necessary and I was able to make a very easy to read pdf with dates and all the info needed for court in minutes! That was going back over a year of messages! 10/10 recommend this app!

Custody Dispute

I have an abusive ex husband who has been in and out of my daughter’s life, and was needing to export my iPhone texts to get ready for a possible court date with him. This app was great in that it was easy to capture things with screen recording however, it did not write the texts in correct order nor include all the texts in my short video. Would be a nice cheap option for someone wanting to use it for personal reasons, but absolutely not up to par for any court case

Thank you for the detail. TextPort's screen recording import can misorder messages on a fast scroll, and since September 2026 Import from Messages reads iMessage and SMS directly through Apple's Shortcuts app, in order and with exact timestamps. Our guide "Prepare messages for court" at textport.com/guides walks through it.

Monthly Subscription Please

There’s supposedly one for $14.99/mo. Please make it available! This is my only complaint, I love the app!

Timestamp fix?

This app is very easy to use and the results are visually appealing. So much better than tons of screenshots.
In reviewing one of the pdfs, I noticed that the time attached to each text is the same throughout the conversation. If the conversation started at 10:03, all texts are tagged as happening at 10:03 even if the back and forth was over a larger timespan.

Response from developer

You're right, and thanks for the kind words. Messages only shows a time at the start of each block, so TextPort's screen recording import gives the whole block that time. Import from Messages reads the exact time of every message, and you can fix any single message with a long press and Edit Timestamp.

Great Idea; Terrible Quality

While getting ready for child support court I figured I would give this app a try. Yes, I will say that I did have a long export but even when I broke it town into sections I still had problems. After fact checking, I noticed things I know I texted located under the opposite party and vice versa multiple times. I went back and tried again repeatedly on my tablet and on my phone via screen recording but the same issues prevail. Maybe this works better by plugging the device in. When I’m able to purchase another laptop I guess I’ll try. Until then, the app is useless to me.

Sorry this happened while you were preparing for court. On long chats, TextPort's screen recording import can put a message under the wrong sender. Import from Messages, added in September 2026, reads iMessage and SMS directly through Apple's Shortcuts app, so every sender and time is exact, and you don't need a laptop.

Still have to screenshot texts

If you’re trying to work on your phone you still have to screenshot all the texts and import them to the app. What’s the point of the app? I can screenshot texts myself.

DOUBLE BILLS YOU

They bill you double without telling you and scam you out of money. I’m trying to find a way to resolve this

Easy to use and very efficient

Just wanted to save a text thread that was extremely long. It did the job quick and easy.

Life saver

I had 200+ messages I needed to get copies of I have no idea of the time it would have taken. I am guessing total of 20 minutes scrolling was the hardest and it was nothing then TextPort took over put into PDF. I will say this may be one of the best tools for us to have.

Response from developer

Thank you, we're glad TextPort saved you that time with your 200+ messages! For iMessage and SMS, Import from Messages now reads the chat directly through Apple's Shortcuts app, with no scrolling at all.

Just Screen Record

You can just screen record and save opposed to this app charging you to do the same exact thing

Text message to say able file in just minutes.

It did just what I needed to keep a Text thread with my husband who passed. (I needed to free memory in my I-phone but did not want to loose our conversations)
Simple and easy to use.

Response from developer

We're so sorry about your husband. We're glad your conversations with him are safe, and that you could free up space on your iPhone without losing them.

Worked great

Has worked very well and super helpful

Works well - easy to use

Easy to use, worked great.

Great for legal

I will get the yearly plan, but because it does screen record, I would screen record the phone number also to get it on record otherwise it’s a perfect app

It works

All the other don’t seem to work for iPhone.
