Very quick question before i spend ages scrolling through an iMessage thread (about 15-20 messages a day on average)


Im trying to view iMessages from my partner from last August time to find out a date she may have text me something, i know i can spend ages scrolling up but before i do that - is there a quicker way that i don't know of ?

Sadly, I can't help you with that one.


My personal solution to this problem is to archive my messages using an application called PhoneView (Mac). I can archive them as either text or pdf files, both of which are easily searchable. I would note that the application is not free. If you have a Windows computer, TouchCopy is a similar option.
