Download Snapchat Memories with dates

Only if you keep more than about 5GB saved in Snapchat’s cloud. Below that, nothing changes. Above it, Snap sells optional Memories storage plans; My Data export is still free. From January 2027, older overflow outside your oldest 5GB can be archived as thumbnails unless you upgrade or download.

Snapchat’s official path is accounts.snapchat.com → My Data → export Memories + JSON. You get a ZIP (sometimes several). That ZIP is dated with the download day. Drop it here to rewrite capture dates, GPS, and overlays so Google Photos and Apple Photos sort the years correctly.

No. The My Data portal is the only official bulk download. This site is the second step: it fixes the archive Snapchat already gave you. We never log into Snapchat or pull Memories from their servers.

The official export stamps filesystem dates as “today,” especially for older years. The real capture time lives in memories_history.json and in the filename prefix. We write DateTimeOriginal (photos) and QuickTime creation time (videos).

No. The ZIP is read in your browser with JSZip. Cloudflare never sees the photos. Pro payment is a separate checkout; it does not receive your archive. We do not offer a Drive upload SKU — drag the restored folder yourself.

Scan and the CSV report are always free. Free restore: one job per day, first 15 photos, with dates, GPS, and overlay bake on those photos. Pro adds the rest of the ZIP, remaining overlays, split-video merge, and videos. Not Snapchat+ and not extra Memories storage.

No. My Eyes Only is encrypted with a passcode Snapchat does not put in My Data. Anyone claiming a browser tool can open it is not describing the official export.

Those scripts fetch the old memories_history.json download links. Links expire, overlays stay separate, and you still need a second pass for dates. This tool assumes you already have the official ZIP.

Pro tries to concatenate numbered clips from the same memory (ffmpeg.wasm in the browser). If the browser cannot load ffmpeg, those clips still get the right dates as separate files.

The overlay is a transparent PNG. Photos apps fill transparency with black. Do not import -overlay.png alone. The free first 15 photos get the overlay baked on. The rest of the folder does too after you unlock it. Until then, keep those PNGs out of the library.

GPS was in memories_history.json, not in the file. Toggle JSON when you request My Data. We write EXIF GPS when the row matches. Filename-only dates will not get coordinates.

Often hours, commonly 24–48 hours, large libraries up to about a week. Download every part as soon as it lands. Old-style download links expire in about seven days.

That in-app notice is a single Snap saved to a camera roll. It is not the My Data bulk ZIP. Different button, different job.

They are strong desktop apps if you have a 70 GB library. We win if you already have the ZIP on a computer and do not want an installer or a second cloud upload product. Compare page spells out price and features.

Only if Snapchat still has them. My Data exports Memories that are still on the account. Snaps you deleted, never saved to Memories, or that Snapchat already removed after a storage grace window are not in the ZIP. This site cannot pull files Snapchat did not export. If they are still in the app, request My Data before you delete them.

An archive that opens with no photos usually means Memories was not included, you saved the HTML/JSON report instead of the media ZIP, or you only downloaded chat media. A file that will not unzip is usually an unfinished download or a single part of a split export. Re-download every part from a computer, then drop the ZIPs here. The scanner says so when it finds no photos.

The capture time lives in memories_history.json and the filename prefix. The files themselves are stamped with the export day. Restoring the ZIP writes DateTimeOriginal on photos and QuickTime creation time on videos. Import that restored folder. Unzipping the raw My Data archive does not keep the capture time.
