Facebook allows you to download your Facebook Messenger conversations from the web, so that you can keep them safely stored and you can consult them whenever you want from a computer or mobile phone, a process that will not take too long.

Although they should not be lost if you do not lose access to your Facebook account, you probably want to heal your health and have a special chat with a family member, partner or friend stored, so that you can consult it without having to enter Facebook Messenger.

If you have a computer at hand and an Internet connection, this process can be done in a few moments and that is because Facebook facilitates this possibility , since you can also download all the information that Facebook has about you .

To download your chats from Facebook Messenger, follow these steps:

  • In the left column click on “your Facebook information” .
  • Next, enter the “view” option where it says “download your information.”
  • Now what you have to do is click on the option “unmark all” and mark only the option called “messages”, which is the second from the top, in this way we will only download the messages generated by Facebook Messenger.
  • Next, choose the date range you want to get the conversations from, you can leave it as is or you can choose the dates yourself. The boxes for quality of multimedia content and format can be left as they are.
  • Finally, click on “create file” and you will have to wait a few seconds or minutes, time that will depend on how big the file is.
  • To download it, you just have to click on the bell icon at the top and click where it says “your Facebook information file is ready to download.”
