Exporting your conversations is coming soon! We’ve been talking about it for ages and it’s finally getting close. I’ve been working pretty exclusively on a new component that allows Dexrex to act as a generic data service (aka a public API, whoaaa). The first thing we’re going to build on top of that is a way to export your data.
I’m not sure exactly what form the exporting will take and I would love to hear opinions on the subject. The problem is there are no universal formats for IM/SMS conversations. One solution we are considering is a two-way integration with our friends at LogConverter.com, another is a well documented XML based format. Whatever solution we decide to go with, it will be the one we feel is best for Dexrex users. What good is a data export if you can’t read it!?
To the increasing number of people who are requesting this feature, rest assured, it is coming. And not worry - The feature will be totally free and without any strings attached, just like the rest of Dexrex.com :)
Welcome!

Update:
This post is a bit old now, and obviously we don't have data exporting yet. We will absolutely have free, no-strings-attached data exporting as soon as the feature meets our quality standards. Your data won't be trapped on Dexrex, so no worries!
I will update when I have more details about this.
