## FAQs

### Is the iMessage chat generator free?

Yes — completely free, no signup. Generate unlimited iMessage mockups for testimonials, customer stories, social-proof slides, and pitch material. Mockups render in your browser; nothing leaves your device.

### What can I customize on the iMessage mockup?

Contact name, message bubble copy (sender and recipient), timestamps, delivery states (Read/Delivered), tapback reactions, and theme. The preview matches iOS 17/18 iMessage with the rounded sky-blue bubble style and the contact-name header.

### Does this support iMessage 1:1 DMs as well as group chats?

This page boots pre-configured for an iMessage group thread (the more common testimonial use case — multiple stakeholders quoted in one screenshot). The current FakeChat control surface does not expose a channel-type toggle, so a dedicated 1:1 DM preset is not yet reachable from this page; a per-variant DM URL is on the roadmap. For cross-platform group-chat work (Slack, neutral messaging) the dedicated Group Chat Mockup Generator at /resources/tools/generators/group-chat-mockup-generator is the better entry point.

### Will these look right in iOS dark mode?

Not today. The iMessage preview renders in the light style (white background with the iOS sky-blue outgoing bubbles and grey incoming bubbles), which is what most testimonial and customer-story screenshots use anyway. The FakeChat control surface does not currently expose a theme toggle, so a dedicated iOS dark-mode preset is not reachable from this page. A dark-mode toggle is on the roadmap; until it ships, capture the mockup in the light style and use a deck-level dark-mode inversion if your slide template requires it.

### How do I save the iMessage mockup as an image?

Capture the preview with your OS screenshot tool (Cmd+Shift+4 on macOS, Snipping Tool on Windows, or any browser extension that captures a region). The preview renders at retina-quality density so the resulting PNG is deck-ready at 2x resolution. A built-in PNG Download button is on the roadmap — the sibling Social Media Post Mockup Generator and Email Thread Mockup Generator already ship it, and the iMessage / Slack / group-chat variants will follow.

### How does this differ from the umbrella Fake Chat Generator?

This page boots in iMessage's signature visual language — blue-bubble outgoing / grey-bubble incoming, the iOS 18 read-receipt timestamp under the last delivered message, Tapback reactions, and the iMessage typing indicator — and ships FAQs on group-chat iOS quirks (single-shared-avatar header, reaction stacking on a single bubble, multi-line subject support). The umbrella Fake Chat Generator at /resources/tools/generators/fake-chat-generator is the right call for cross-platform compares against Slack or neutral SMS.
