We're hardly the first people to complain about this, but it drives me nuts. I rarely delete messages (for better or worse), so I have an ever-growing iMessage database that is basically inaccessible to me. I don't know why I pay to back up 20 gigs of messages that I can't even access, but here we are. For instance, I wanted to figure out the exact date I met my partner. The only way to do this on iMessage is to scroll up...all the way up. With a few seconds of god-knows-what in between every page. The endeavor is usually futile, though; because when you get a ways back, the iMessage app will crash.
- dliff 5y agoThe worst part: if the person sends you a text while you're scrolled up it will jump all the way to present time.

- voltaireodactyl 5y agoI recently figured out that iMazing allows you to export PDFs (among other formats) of all your text convos. It’s pretty perfect for my needs, which were precisely the same scenario (plus printing out a nice history)
