Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my exported Snapchat photos show the wrong date?
Snapchat's export doesn't embed metadata into your files. The dates, GPS coordinates, and timeline info exist only in the JSON file—your actual photos/videos have no EXIF data, so they all show the download date instead of when you actually took them.
What does ExportSnaps do?
ExportSnaps reads your memories_history.json file, downloads your media directly from Snapchat's servers, and embeds the correct dates, GPS coordinates, and timezone into each file. It also automatically merges separated overlay files (text/stickers) into single finished photos.
Is my data safe? Do you upload my photos anywhere?
100% private. Everything processes locally on your computer. Your photos never leave your device—we don't have servers that store or process your files.
What platforms are supported?
macOS 12.0+ (Intel and Apple Silicon) and Windows 10 1809+. ExportSnaps is a desktop app, it's not available for mobile or web because large exports require proper file system access and processing power.
How much does it cost?
Free for up to 200 files. Pro is $14.99 one-time payment for unlimited processing—no subscription.
Can it handle large exports?
Yes. Tested with 1,163.34 GB and 64,790 files. Processing typically takes 2-10 minutes depending on your library size.
What if some files fail to download?
ExportSnaps generates a failed.json file during processing that you can retry without re-downloading everything. Most failures resolve on the second attempt.
Will my photos work in Apple Photos / Google Photos?
Yes. After processing, your photos import with correct dates, show up on the map, and sort chronologically in any gallery app that reads EXIF metadata.
How to export Snapchat memories with metadata?
Request your data from accounts.snapchat.com (enable "Export JSON Files"), then process the export through ExportSnaps to embed dates and GPS into your actual files.
How to merge Snapchat overlay files?
ExportSnaps automatically merges separated overlay zips with your main photos/videos into single finished files.
How to add GPS location to Snapchat export?
ExportSnaps extracts GPS coordinates from your memories_history.json and embeds them into each file, so map views work in any gallery app.
What to do if Snapchat export keeps failing?
ExportSnaps downloads directly from Snapchat's servers and generates a failed.json during processing for any issues, you can retry just the failed files without starting over. We're working on a better solution to handle this.
