Best App/Program for texts from I-phone

DH has been talking about wanting to print off all of his texts from BM. Apparently he has never deleted a text the whole time he has had an i-phone so going back like 12 years. He wants to delete them so he can clear out his phone, obviously that many texts take up a lot of space. 

I have a program that I have used for work but it's for androids. What have you used to create a PDF for iphones? 

 

Side note: DS16 asked me yesterday if SS17 was coming for spring break. I said I didn't know. DD14 said that the last time he was here he said he had no problem visiting, he just didn't like me. I asked DD what he had meant. She said that he said "everything was fine with his parents divorce until I came along and ruined it all" . 

Huh... that doesn't sound coached at all. The fact is BM wouldn't let SS come back to VA before DH and I were together. DH had to fly to KS to see him. This went on for 18 months, and broke DH financially. He was paying alimony and CS and flying to see his kid. Whatever, but sure, I am the reason that everything went to shit. 

No, wait, I am the reason DH could afford to finally get an attorney and start fighting for his kid. He wasn't paying everything on his own anymore. God these kids just don't have a clue. I told DH that for SS's 18th birthday he should send him all the texts- Happy reading kid. Your mom is crazy toxic. Hopefully you can see and understand it now that you are 18.

can't you request it from the phone company? Probably have to pay and would probably be a lot for how many texts that will be.

DH and BM have been using App Close to communicate for 3ish years now. We can export the messages whenever and it can be used as evidence in court.

The one I found was $30 but that would be worth it to have everything in a PDF and move on with our lives. I am willing to pay, it just needs to happen.

We tried to get a parenting APP ordered but the judge refused.

I agree, get it in a pdf and move on!

I don't understand that, unless they want to help BM get away with saying whatever she wants which seems like the judge in your case!

First you have to back the iPhone up to iTunes if it hasn't been already. Then download the app "Decipher Text Message." It's also just under $30 but it's simple and easy to use. You can either export specific dates or the entire thread to PDF.
