How do I print text messages from iPhone for court hearing?
I recently ran into a problem that made me laugh and cry. I wanted to print out my text messages from my iPhone, which I thought would be pretty simple, but I got so wrapped up in it. First I though...
There are two free ways to print out iPhone text messages for court use:
Using Screenshots:
Scroll through your Messages conversations and take screenshots of each message you need. Then send these screenshots to your computer via AirDrop, email, or WeChat for printing.
Using the Messages app:
If using a Mac, make sure your iPhone and Mac are logged into the same Apple ID and have iMessage syncing enabled. Open the Messages app on your Mac, find the conversation you need, select all of it, copy it (Command+A, Command+C), and then paste it (Command+V) into a Pages or Word document for printing.
Neither method requires third-party paid software.
