    Original ZIP; recorded status is not a live permission check

Wait for the platform to finish preparing the download. Keep the original folder structure and choose the supported files together. A category that was not exported is unavailable, not empty.

Memory only. Clear the export, reload or close this tab to forget it. No ZIP is uploaded or saved.

Export coverage and privacy

Download your Facebook information with Messages selected, in JSON or HTML format. InstaScope reads supported inbox, archived, filtered, request and encrypted-history transition folders. Files may cover only part of your history, including encrypted conversations. Their absence does not establish inactivity or a complete encrypted backup.

Limits: one ZIP up to 2 GB, 10,000 ZIP entries, 20 MB per message part, 60 MB expanded per selected conversation, 200 parts and 100,000 records. ZIP64, encrypted and multipart ZIP containers are unsupported. Split message files within one ZIP are supported. Media and unrelated private files are skipped.

Try Demo above, choose a conversation, then explore its Analyzer and My Messenger Wrapped.
