Misento imports your messages right on your iPhone through a shortcut and keeps them current. Importing messages from your iPhone needs iOS 26 or later.

"When did Maya and I start talking every day?" "What do I talk about most with Alex?" Answers about what was said link back to the messages they use, so you can read them in place.

ChatRecap

Your messages tell a story. ChatRecap turns that story into a bold, private recap you can explore and share. Choose a conversation—or several—and uncover the patterns hiding in plain sight: • Who sends more and who starts the conversation • Median response times and late-night habits • Questions, apologies, double texts, and attachments • Tone, trends, recurring topics, phrases, and memorable moments • Relationship and group-chat insights based on the available evidence • Your Year in Messages, a rolling 12-month look across your chats Bring in selected Messages history with the ChatRecap Mac companion, connect GroupMe, or import a supported WhatsApp, JSON, CSV, TXT, or ZIP export. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Analysis happens on your iPhone. ChatRecap does not require an account, run ads, track you, or upload your conversations to a developer-operated message server. Imported messages remain only in temporary app memory for the active session so you can create recaps for multiple periods; ChatRecap never persists the archive. You control what gets shared, and Names Hidden can replace recognized names in generated images. TRY IT FREE Create up to two recaps for free. ChatRecap Unlimited is an optional one-time in-app purchase that unlocks unlimited conversation wraps. Restore Purchase is available on supported Apple devices using the same Apple Account. Some insights require enough message history to produce a meaningful result. ChatRecap labels limited or insufficient evidence instead of inventing a conclusion.
