Suggestion: The folders are the phone number. Is it possible to use the contact name for the folder name instead of the number, if it is a known contact/in the address book? Also, what about .heic support?

Roadmap!

If you want something a bit more robust and cross-platform, including support for the undocumented TypedStream-stored text data, you can use my open source software: https://github.com/ReagentX/imessage-exporter

Can you do one for verifying Nigerian princes?

Reminds me of the calls I get from my 89 year old grandma every once in a while, you might be on to something with this.

Awesome, thanks for this. Thinking of doing the same for Mail?

I was using a DB product to extract iMessages for years and I lost it when I got a new Mac, this is perfect.

Not yet! Great idea though. I've always just pulled out my conversations without pulling the attachments or URLs. The next version might provide an option for what you want to extract (Messages, Attachments, URLS)

I'll mess with Mail after that!

Thanks for the love @ata_aman !
