instagram chat analyzer

Your Instagram DMs, wrapped.

If most of your relationship lives in Instagram messages, LoveDash can turn that thread into a letter and a Wrapped-style reveal. You download your messages from Instagram, drop the file in, and the analysis happens on your device.

What the Instagram analysis shows

The same eighteen charts as every LoveDash letter: the balance of who talks more, the hours you are both awake, how quickly you answer each other, the words and emoji you lean on, and the timeline of the days that mattered.

The Wrapped turns it into eight chapters you can play through slowly, with a soundtrack, ending on cards made to post.

Both apps use the same Accounts Center flow — this emails you a download link once it's ready, so kick it off first if you're doing multiple apps. When it arrives it may be split across several files rather than one — that's normal for a big inbox, and you can drop all of them in together below.

About the Instagram export

Instagram does not give you chat stats, but it does let you download your messages. The request runs through Accounts Center and arrives by email as a download link, usually within a day, so start it first if you are doing more than one app.

Choose JSON as the format, since that is what LoveDash reads. Big inboxes can arrive split across several files; you can drop all of them in together.

Because Instagram and Messenger share Accounts Center, the same export covers both. If you and your person also talk on WhatsApp or Messenger, add those files too and LoveDash merges them into one timeline.

Privacy and price

Your messages are parsed in your browser and are never uploaded. Saving a letter stores only aggregate numbers.

The Love Letter is one bright page with eighteen charts. The Wrapped is an eight-chapter slow reveal with a soundtrack. During our $0.99 sale, either one is $0.99 and so are both together, until Oct 31. Regular prices are $4.99 each or $7.99 for both. One time, no subscription.

Common questions

Is my chat private?

Yes. Your export is read and analyzed entirely inside your browser tab — the messages never get uploaded, and nobody (not us, not an AI) reads them. If you save a letter, only the aggregate numbers (counts, times, top words) and your opening line are stored, never your conversation.

How do I export Instagram or Messenger messages?

Go to Accounts Center, then Your information and permissions, then Export your information. Choose Export to device, keep only Messages, set the date range to All time and the format to JSON. Meta emails you a download link, usually within a day.

Which apps does it work with?

WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger. You can add more than one export and LoveDash merges them into a single timeline for the two of you.

How much does it cost?

Right now everything is $0.99 in our sale: the Love Letter, the Wrapped, or both together, until Oct 31. Regular prices are $4.99 each, or $7.99 for both. It is a one-time purchase with no subscription.
