Simply click the button and set the dates to search between. Apply the date range, and TouchCopy will return only the images sent and received between your dates.
Firstly, you will need to open TouchCopy and connect your iPhone when prompted to do so. Once TouchCopy has loaded your device data, click the 'Messages' tab on the left-hand side of TouchCopy. You can then scroll down to see all of the contacts you have had text, iMessage, WhatsApp and LINE conversations with.
