用户协议
版本 1.0 · 最后更新 2026-10-25 · 生效日期 2026-10-25
1. 接受本协议
本用户协议(下称「本协议」)是你与 Lu Li(下称「我们」或「开发者」)之间就使用 Msg Archive 移动应用及其更新、功能与内容(下称「本 App」)达成的法律协议。
下载、安装或使用本 App,即表示你同意本协议及我们的隐私政策。若不同意,请勿使用并删除本 App。
2. 使用资格
你须年满 13 周岁(EEA / 英国为 16 周岁)。未成年人须在父母或监护人参与下使用本 App。
3. 本 App 能做什么、不能做什么
Msg Archive 在你的 iPhone 上建立并管理聊天归档:
- 导入聊天导出文件(.txt / .zip),包括附件配对与多行消息;
- 在没有导出功能时,用截图在本机识别文字、按顺序拼接并标记缺口;
- 全文检索,并按对话、发送者与日期筛选;
- 导出气泡版式或纯文本 PDF、CSV、纯文本,并附完整性报告;
- 以 AES-256-GCM 加密备份,并可在需要时校验与恢复。
你必须了解的限制:
| 事项 |
你需要知道 |
| 不提供法律认证 |
完整性报告与文件哈希只记录导出内容,不构成法律证据认证。证据效力需由你通过自己的陈述与原设备证明。 |
| 截图识别可能出错 |
由截图重建的消息依赖文字识别,可能认错字、丢失表情或时间精度,并可能遗漏内容。请核对标记为「待核对」的消息。 |
| 不能恢复已删除的聊天 |
本 App 只能导入你已有的导出文件或截图,无法从消息 App 中恢复已删除的内容,也无法读取消息数据库。 |
| 需要你有权处理这些内容 |
归档可能包含他人的姓名、电话与私密对话。你须确保自己有权保存、导出与分享这些内容,并遵守当地关于通信与隐私的法律。 |
| 本 App 不是备份服务 |
归档默认不进设备备份;没有自己的备份时,iPhone 丢失或更换会导致归档丢失。 |
| 口令无法找回 |
备份口令不会被保存。忘记口令后,任何人(包括我们)都无法打开该备份。 |
| 语音消息不可播放 |
本版本不含音频解码器,语音消息只显示占位符。 |

Terms of Use
Version 1.0 · Last updated 2026-10-25 · Effective date 2026-10-25
1. Agreement to these Terms
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Lu Li ("we", "us", "the Developer"), governing your use of the Msg Archive mobile application and any updates, features or content we make available through it (the "App").
By downloading, installing or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App and delete it.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (16 in the EEA/UK) to use the App. If you are a minor, you may use the App only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
3. What the App does — and what it does not
Msg Archive builds and manages a private chat archive on your iPhone:
- import chat export files (.txt / .zip), pairing attachments and handling multi-line messages;
- when no export exists, recognize text from screenshots on the device, stitch them in order and flag gaps;
- search everything, and filter by conversation, sender and date;
- export chat-bubble or transcript PDFs, CSV or plain text, with an integrity report;
- create AES-256-GCM encrypted backups, and verify or restore them when needed.
Limitations you acknowledge:
| Topic |
What you should know |
| No legal certification |
The integrity report and file hash record what was exported; they are not legal certification. Evidentiary value must be established by you, through your own testimony and the original device. |
| Screenshot recognition can be wrong |
Messages rebuilt from screenshots depend on text recognition: characters may be misread, emoji and exact times lost, and content may be missed. Review the messages flagged "needs review". |
| It cannot recover deleted chats |
The App imports the export file or screenshots you already have. It cannot recover deleted content from a messaging app or read its database. |
| You must be entitled to the content |
An archive can contain other people's names, phone numbers and private conversations. You must be entitled to keep, export and share that content, and comply with local communications and privacy law. |
| The App is not a backup service |
The archive is excluded from device backup by default; without your own backup, it is lost if the iPhone is lost or replaced. |
| A lost passphrase cannot be recovered |
Backup passphrases are not stored. If you forget one, nobody — including us — can open that backup. |
| Voice messages cannot be played |
This version bundles no audio decoder, so voice messages show a placeholder. |
4. Apple App Store additional terms
These Terms are between you and the Developer only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. The following applies because you obtained the App from the Apple App Store:
- Scope of licence. The licence granted in §5 is limited to a non-transferable licence to use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
- Maintenance and support. The Developer, not Apple, is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the App. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support.
- Warranty. The Developer is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
- Product claims. The Developer, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App or your possession and/or use of it, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection, privacy or similar legislation.
- Intellectual property claims. In the event of a third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, the Developer, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of the claim.
- Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Third-party beneficiary. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you.
- Export. You must comply with applicable export control and sanctions laws and may not use the App in any prohibited jurisdiction or for any prohibited purpose.
- U.S. Government end users. The App is a "Commercial Item" as defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101, consisting of "Commercial Computer Software" and "Commercial Computer Software Documentation". It is licensed to U.S. Government end users only as Commercial Items and with only those rights granted to all other end users.
Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula) is incorporated by reference to the extent it applies and does not conflict with these Terms.
5. Licence and restrictions
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App on Apple devices you own or control.
You may not:
- copy, modify, translate, reverse-engineer, decompile or disassemble the App, except to the extent permitted by mandatory law;
- rent, lease, sublicense, distribute or resell the App;
- remove or alter proprietary notices;
- obtain someone else's chats without authorisation to access their device or account;
- use the App to harass, threaten or stalk anyone, or to violate anyone's privacy, secrecy of communications or other rights;
- present exported files or integrity reports as false evidence;
- use the App in a way that violates applicable law, a messaging service's terms or Apple's terms.
We may suspend or terminate your licence if you materially breach these Terms.
6. Your content and responsibilities
You keep all rights to your archive, exports and backups. You grant us only the limited, on-device licence necessary to operate the features you invoke. Because processing happens on your device, we never receive your content.
You are responsible for:
- confirming you are entitled to keep, process, export and share the content in the archive, including other people's personal information;
- complying with local law on communications records, privacy and data protection;
- reviewing messages rebuilt from screenshots and verifying accuracy before important use;
- keeping your backup passphrase safe and storing backups somewhere you trust;
- keeping your device passcode safe, especially with the app lock on.
7. Purchases
This version has no in-app purchases and is free. We process no payments, and there are no subscriptions or restores. If paid features are introduced later, the price and terms will be shown in the App before you confirm a purchase.
8. Free features
All current features are free with no usage limits.
9. Intellectual property and trademarks
The App, including its software, design, text and graphics, is owned by the Developer or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights other than the limited licence in §5.
"Msg Archive" is a name used by us. WhatsApp, iMessage, SMS and other messaging service names and logos are trademarks of their respective owners. The App is an independent product, not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by any messaging service. Content in an archive, including avatars, images and text, belongs to its respective owners.
Apple, iPhone and App Store are trademarks of Apple Inc.
10. Feedback
If you send us suggestions or feedback, you grant us a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use and incorporate it without compensation or attribution. Do not send us real conversations.
11. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what the App processes on your device and what leaves it. By using the App you acknowledge that policy. The key point: messages never leave this device unless you export or share them.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.
We do not warrant that:
- an import or recognition result will be complete, accurate or identical to the original chat;
- an export will have any legal effect or be accepted by any authority;
- a backup will always be restorable, or that no data will be lost;
- the App will be compatible with every iOS version or export format.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Developer will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, archives, messages, profits, goodwill or business opportunity, arising out of or related to your use of or inability to use the App, even if advised of the possibility.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Developer's total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the App will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid for the App in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) USD 10.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your mandatory statutory rights as a consumer.
14. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Developer from claims, damages, losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the App, or your archiving or exporting of another person's communications without the right to do so.
15. Termination
You may stop using the App and delete it at any time. We may suspend or terminate the licence if you breach these Terms or if we discontinue the App. On termination, the licence in §5 ends; §§4, 9, 12, 13, 14, 17 and 18 survive. Termination does not entitle you to a refund except where required by law or by Apple's refund policy.
16. Changes to the App and these Terms
We may update the App and these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms with a new "Last updated" date and, for material changes, describe them in the App or on this page before they take effect. If you continue to use the App after the effective date, you accept the updated Terms.
17. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to the paragraph below, the courts of the People's Republic of China have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms or the App.
Nothing in this section deprives you of the protection of mandatory consumer laws in your country of residence, or of your right to bring a claim in your local courts where the law gives you that right. Before filing a claim, please contact us at support@gougou.me so we can try to resolve the issue informally.
18. Miscellaneous
- Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App.
- Severability. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in full force.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign them to an affiliate or successor.
- Language. These Terms are provided in English and Chinese. If they conflict, the English version controls to the extent permitted by applicable law.
- Apple. Apple is not a party to these Terms except as stated in §4.
