How To Make A Book From Dating App Messages
Yes, we support dating apps: Hinge, Tinder, Bumble, OkCupid, Raya and any other. Any way you can get the conversation to us, we turn it into a book. Screenshots, an exported file, a forwarded email, the messages typed up, even what you remember.
Do you support dating apps like Hinge, Tinder and Bumble?
Yes. Hinge, Tinder, Bumble, OkCupid and Raya each have a page of steps. Grindr, Feeld, Coffee Meets Bagel and every other dating app work the same way, with screenshots.
Most dating apps have no export that holds both sides of a conversation, and the chat can go when a match or an account does. Screenshots are the sure way to keep it.
What can I send?
Whatever you have: screenshots of the conversation, a file the app exported or emailed you, an email you forward to the address we give you, or the messages typed out, one per line with the name first. What you remember works too, written down the same way.
We set what you give us in order, with each person's name beside what they wrote, and add nothing to it. If a file is new to us, we add a reader for it.
How do screenshots work?
Scroll up to the first message and take screenshots down to the last one, in order. One scrolling screenshot works too. After you choose your book, pick Screenshots, tick the box and upload them, up to 100, 20 at a time. They are read by Claude, Anthropic's model, only if you tick the box that says so, and we don't keep the screenshots.
For a longer conversation, contact us. A person on our team takes the screenshots by email, puts them in order and sets up your book with you, free. That person sees what you send.
What if the chat is already gone?
Write down what you remember: the first message, the one that made you laugh, the plan for the first date. One message per line with the name first, pasted in after you choose your book. It can be a short book.
It is also worth asking the other person. An unmatch or a deleted account often removes the chat for both people, but a conversation that moved to texting is still in your phone, and those have their own steps below.
Does the other person find out?
Only when you give it to them. Only one of you needs to do this, and we never contact anyone else in the conversation.
Their messages are in the book beside yours. When you order, you confirm that you're in the conversation and that the others in it would be happy to be in a printed book. The privacy policy says what we keep and for how long.
What does it cost?
The Unabridged, every message set as a novel, is $49 as a paperback and $89 as a hardcover. The digital edition is $19. US shipping is free.
