03/Questions

Print messages for court: good to know.

Why not just send screenshots?

Screenshots are easy to crop and hard to read in order. An exported transcript shows the whole conversation with exact timestamps, which is why lawyers usually ask for one.

What should I keep besides the PDF?

Keep the original export file and the phone it came from. The integrity page in the PDF records the SHA-256 hash of that file, so anyone can check that the transcript came from it.

Is this legal advice?

No. chatview formats your chat. Your lawyer or the court will tell you how evidence must be filed where you live.

Is my chat uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is opened and read inside your browser tab. Nothing from the chat is sent to our servers when you view, search or export it. If you buy, the payment goes to Stripe and still no chat content leaves your device.

How much does it cost?

Viewing, searching and the preview are free with no account. A clean PDF is $4.99 and the Evidence Pack is $14.99, paid once per chat. The Case Pass at $19.99 covers every chat for 30 days. There is no subscription.
