TextExhibit Extractor
After creating an iPhone backup, use TextExhibit Extractor to package only the specific conversations you want to share with your legal team into a single .textexhibit file.
TextExhibit Extractor is only needed when packaging conversations to send to a legal team. If you’re generating PDFs yourself, you don’t need it — use the desktop TextExhibit app directly against your iPhone backup.
