Create Books From TXTs + SMS for Android
It was a big gamble to purchase without a sample generated PDF, but I'm glad I paid. The generated "txt-book" PDF came out beautifully as promised. Needs emoticon support. Missing emoticons means convos out of context! Will give 5 stars if emoticons supported later. App name & icon needs face-lift in Play Store to avoid looking like another generic, garbage app. ***UPDATED TO 5 STARS*** Thank you for the emoji update!!!
I have been searching for an app like this for months and I'm still really excited about it. I intstalled the app on my Galaxy S5 and when I open up to the first screen, after I press 'start' the screen goes dark and a messaged pops up saying "Unfortunately, txt-book has stopped". I've reinstalled the app a number of times but still recieve the same result. I love the idea of this app and really would like to use it. Can you PLEASE help me?!
Worked perfect for me. I'd suggest the unlimited as I made a typo in my first try and it gave me the chance to make the edit. Gave my book as a first anniversary present which is paper. Clever gift I must say. Customer service helped remind me that my phone saves a copy to my memory card when the PDF was too big to email. Just plugged my phone in and downloaded it. Easy.
Exactly what I wanted. Ended up having them bind my book too...couldn't be happier and made a really great gift! The wife loved it ;-)
Scam app, do not pay them. It does not work. I paid $20 to get a PDF emailed and saved to my phone. However the app did neither. Interface is bad and it doesn't work. Now i need to figure out how to get my money back.
This app does not support RCS messaging which is what all cell phone providers are going to. I imported a text thread and none of my replies transferred over because the text type was "Advanced Messaging" which is RCS messaging from ATT. To check this go to a message you sent, press and hold on it. It will pop up with options. Choose "Message Details" and inside it will tell the type of message. If it says anything other than "Text Message" beware. I contacted support and they said it was an issue with ATT and "kinks" in their system. The supports level of ignorance is discouraging.
Tested others: This is best option. My go to app since 2014 [In-app: $1.99 unlimited use] paid version needs option to stop pop up asking to buy story book for $10 every creation; option to omit blank page in printout; option to omit advert in email body; option not to email conversion but to save to internal drive; option to edit file name (7/25/2016 Update: App crashes on +, reinstalled still crashes)
App crashes when I hit the start button. Please help.
Good quality books and shipping and costs were reasonable. Will use then again for future txt books.
Amazingness
A few years back, I used this app to print out all the texts between me and someone who took me to court. The printed document was very clear and made it easy for the judge to understand. I won. Thanks!
In these digital times, I sometimes find myself longing for a more permanent catalog of my life. I just went through a break up, and having a physical representation of our relationship really helped me move pass the sadness while remembering the good parts. Love the app.
I cannot see whats going to be created without paying, cannot get anything without paying, just charge for it from the beginning and don't waste time of people, 1 usd or 100 usd, doesn't matter, it's a lie, not free.
Awesome app to capture word for word messages and photos between you and person you choose. Great for new relationship and also for documenting a bad one legally. Yeah screwd your self huh danette lol

I bought the unlimited version and was unable to create books a few months after downloading. I can't get the start date to change, the month only displays the first month of the conversation selected and when I try to change or type in the month, nothing comes up. I don't want the entire conversation, only a single day. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S5 through Verizon.
I paid, used the app, still nothing. Not sure why I didn't get my book. But I got billed. Uninstalling
My son died recently and I wanted to save his last text messages and didn't know how until I searched online and found this app. Not only could I print them with titles and dates I could save them to my hard drive and send just parts of our conversations to friends and family. Thank you for creating this app. Really, I was afraid to take my phone out in fear of losing those conversations. Thank you.
I bought the unlimited version and in the email the text book was never attached, and it did not save to my phone either
It only sends a VCF card of my contact info. It is meant to send the sms history as a book. Load of rubbish.
Cannot download. Paid 2.17 (with tax) and sent email 3 times and never received it. I WANT MY MONEY BACK...DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME WITH THIS APP!!!!!
App crashes when I hit the start button. Please help.
I paid for it and the pdf never was sent...

Won't stay open beyond startup page.

Very easy to use.. and its awsm app...
[In-app: $1.99 unlimited use] presentation good, but could be better: needs option to stop pop up asking to buy story book for $10 every creation; option to omit blank page in printout; add email subject, option to omit advert in email body; option not to email conversion but to save to internal drive; option to edit file name. *Tip: use WiFi, after Email file, save to phone, edit file name, delete email to save cluttered email inbox (too many steps but until someone else develops a better app, we SOL)

This is a very good app and it did almost exactly what i need it to do. I would advise purchasing the unlimited option as you will want to modify the pdf after you create it. The only negative part of this app is that it won't put emoticons into the pdf. So if you sent a text with just emoticons it will appear as an empty box in the pdf. Without them it can take away the context and humor of some of the text. I would have rated this app five stars, however the no emoticons knocked it down to three stars.
Its purpose I can't iven make it
I don't understand why i need to pay on the end? I generated PDF so why i must pay?
Tapi harus bayar dulu.. kampret.. no no no..
The app force closes every time I try to open it.
Don't waste your time. Move along. My pdf didn't work, I asked three times for a refund to no avail. When I told them they could keep their money, they flippantly told me I could keep their free app.
So impressed with this app. Have been making differnet chapters/volumes for my four years in college. I am basiclly able to preserve all the fun jokes and pictures between me and my friends in a way that looks really catchy and easy to read.

I have the galaxy s7 active. I need my text messages printed for custody court. This app doesn't work with my phone apparently. It doesn't do 95% of my outbox messages....it appears to do all the received but nearly none of the sent. Hopefully I can get my 10 bucks back
