How do I document harassment on my phone?
Preserve the full conversation, including dates, times, sender identity, and the messages before and after the unwanted contact.
Should I use screenshots as evidence?
Screenshots can help, but a complete PDF is easier to organize, search, print, and review as a timeline.
Can I export messages from other chat apps?
ChatSave helps you keep conversations from the apps you can open on your iPhone in one organized archive.
A CLEANER RECORD
Preserve the pattern, not just one message
Harassment documentation is strongest when it shows repetition and context. Keep a consistent record rather than saving only the most upsetting message.
What to preserve
- The sender’s name, handle, or phone number.
- Exact timestamps for each contact.
- The surrounding messages that provide context.
- A dated copy of the exported record and original thread.
