Comment on Show HN: imessage-exporter, a CLI app and libraryparent

Comments

I previously kept copies of this SQLite database on hand when backing up my phone (it stores to a specific folder every time), but since encrypted backups were introduced a few iOS versions ago, I found it too much of a hassle.

If OP wants to find this file, a good search term is "3d0d7e5fb2ce288813306e4d4636395e047a3d28" which apparently is a sum of the string "HomeDomain-Library/SMS/sms.db".

One thing I miss from Android was the simplicity of getting data in and out of the phone. I could just dump everything to CSV and be done with it.
