- Mac users preserving important message records
- Worth noticing
- The sample export is labeled fictional and shows Bates-style page IDs, attachment references, and a SHA-256 manifest.
Field notes
The described workflow starts with a conversation selection, then applies a date range, timezone, and Bates-style prefix before saving several export files. The page also says message data stays on-device, with only an optional update check using the network. Its displayed conversation is marked fictional example data. Availability remains unclear: the page offers a $24.99 purchase button while labeling the Mac download “Coming soon.”
