Wow, since I am a data nerd this sounds awesome! Probably will work only with jailbroken iPhones right?

@shashwatpradhan Nope. If you took look at the link… :)
"*chat.db, where a user's messages are stored, can be found in 2 ways:
Where Messages.app (Apple's official Messages.app - iMessage for Mac) stores its data
Where the iPhone's chat.db database is stored after a backup to the computer"

The data storage related to iMessage is quite opaque (if you send/receive a lot of photos/video, it eats up a huge portion total storage space). Is it possible to add, say, total space used plus the top 10 iMessage threads per MB used? I think this would provide actionable analytics for people always bumping into their phone storage limit.
See how often people message you, your word frequencies, and overall messages and words sent! Works with the iMessage database on your computer or from your phone.

@lucasmcgartland this is awesome and something that I was thinking whatsapp would be able to do before iMessage. Excited to try it out.
Interesting idea! I'd like to recommend that you either remove or turn the background music in the demo way down. Kinda distracting.

I LOVE it! There doesn't seem to be copy/paste functionality - i would like to create a word cloud for a conversation history. Maybe you could add that for the top 100 words, excluding common words like 'the', a, etc.
Also - what are "messages/words on date" and "Avg Word/Message (D)". they're all 0 for me in this conversation.
