Re: Show follow-up from 16 June 2025 episode: You can print from Messages to PDF, paper or file
Hi, a listener in this week’s show asked how preserve SMS or iMessages from the Apple Messages apps. In the past, I have done screen shots. @adam suggested iMazing. But no more. You don’t have to do either nor spend a cent. It’s all on your Mac right now with the latest OS. Just open the message you want on a Mac – go “File” >>> “Print” and print to PDF, paper or file.
