# Escape Snapchat
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you go to [accounts.snapchat.com/accounts/downloadmydata](https://accounts.snapchat.com/accounts/downloadmydata), you get the option to "download your data" but most of the data you'd want to keep is in the form of memories.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to export your memories, you'd have to download them manually, one by one.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Python script saves you the trouble.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Just follow the steps below and you'll have all your memories, with relevant timestamps and _modification date_.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
_This script requires Python 3 which can be [installed like so](https://opensource.com/article/19/5/python-3-default-mac)._
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Copy `json/memories_history.json` file from inside the archive you download from the above link and paste it into the repo folder.
|
||||||
|
- Then, run `python memories-downloader.py`
|
||||||
|
- That's it! Bear in mind, the time the script takes depends on the number of memories you have saved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Privacy
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There's no telemetry or internet connectivity outside of actually gathering the download URLs from Snapchat servers and then downloading the files from AWS.
