A brief introduction<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Before you turn your\u00a0Facebook Messenger Chat into a book<\/strong>, you first have to\u00a0download a copy of your conversations<\/strong>\u00a0from Facebook.<\/p>\n

This is a\u00a0native Facebook function<\/strong>\u00a0that every Facebook user has access to.<\/p>\n

The file you download from Facebook contains\u00a0all your Facebook chats<\/strong>. You can then upload the chat you want to turn into a book to zapptales.<\/p>\n

We\u2018ll now show you\u00a0how to download this file in 7 steps.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Important note:<\/strong> We recommend that you export your Facebook data and upload your chat to zapptales on your PC<\/strong>, as the process is much clearer and more convenient. However, you can also perform these steps on your cell phone or in the Facebook app.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\t

\t\t
<\/p>\n

Important note: Due to an update from Facebook, we are currently unable to process Facebook chats. We are working to resolve the issue over the next few weeks. If you have any questions, our support team will be happy to help you \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

Step 6<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/section>
\n

Great! You have just requested an export of your Facebook messages.<\/p>\n

As soon as your data is ready for download, you’ll receive a notification<\/strong> from Facebook. This process usually takes only 10 to 20 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>

Step 7<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/section>
\n

Once your Facebook messages are ready to download, you can click “Download<\/strong>” here. A ZIP file<\/strong> containing your Facebook Messenger chats will then be downloaded to your PC.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>
\n

Please note: <\/strong>Do not<\/strong>\u00a0unpack the ZIP file you just downloaded. If you unpack it, you won\u2019t be able to upload it to zapptales.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
