Lore

Your Texts, Visualized

Visit Lore

Lore is a macOS application that reads iMessage history directly from a Mac and turns conversations into visual stories. It is designed for browsing long message histories, including scrolling to the earliest messages, and for creating shareable summaries of a conversation.

The app includes modules for iMessage analytics, iMessage Wrapped, and visual stories with fun stats, milestones, and highlights such as top emojis and ghosting scores. AI features can run on-device with Apple Intelligence or through cloud processing via OpenAI, with a stateless relay that does not store or log message content. Lore requires a Mac signed into an iMessage account; created stories can be viewed and shared on any device. AI features can be disabled in Settings for local browsing only. The pages do not state a free plan, trial, or pricing model.
