Messenger chats, turned into a printed book

How do you turn your Messenger messages into a book? Ask Meta for a download of your messages, then send us the zip it makes. We set every message as a novel and print it.

The steps

  1. Choose your book and pay. We email you these steps, so you can do them now or later.
  2. Open Meta's download page for Messenger and sign in: Messenger downloads.
  3. Choose Download or transfer information, then Some of your information, and tick only Messages.
  4. Choose Download to device, set the format to JSON and media quality to Low, then create the file.
  5. Meta emails you when it's ready, often within the hour. Download the zip and upload it to us, or email the zip to the address we give you. Attach the zip itself: Meta's own email only has a link that needs your login.
  6. Look through every page, change what you like, and approve. Then it prints and ships.

Some newer encrypted chats aren't in Meta's download. If yours is missing, screenshots of the chat work instead.

The Unabridged is words only. For the Anthology, you add your own photos to the moments you keep.
