How do I save messages for a custody case?

How do I print messages for a custody hearing?
Export to PDF first, then print the PDF. A formatted export keeps long conversations chronological and preserves the details that screenshots often leave out.
Can I export WhatsApp or Messenger conversations?
Yes. ChatSave works with conversations from the messaging apps you use, so you can keep related threads together in one organized archive.
A CLEANER RECORD
What matters when messages become evidence
Custody filings are routine, but the standard for a useful text-message exhibit is higher than most people expect. Before you export, make sure the record keeps the full context of the conversation.
What to preserve
- The sender name or phone number on every message.
- The exact date and time for each individual message.
- The complete conversation in chronological order.
- A copy of the original thread on your device.
