Over the years on snapchat I have saved lots of photos that I would like to retrieve now, The problem is they do not make it easy to export, but luckily if you go online you
So, I just watched their code by downloading my own memories. They use a custom JavaScript function to download your data (a POST request with ID's in the body).
You can replicate this request, but you can also just use their method.
Open your console and use downloadMemories(<url>)
Or if you don't have the urls you can retrieve them yourself:
var links = document.getElementsByTagName("table")[0].getElementsByTagName("a");
eval(links[0].href);
UPDATE
I made a script for this: https://github.com/ToTheMax/Snapchat-All-Memories-Downloader
Using the .json
file you can download them one by one with python:
req = requests.post(url, allow_redirects=True)
response = req.text
file = requests.get(response)
Then get the correct extension and the date:
day = date.split(" ")[0]
time = date.split(" ")[1].replace(':', '-')
filename = f'memories/{day}_{time}.mp4' if type == 'VIDEO' else f'memories/{day}_{time}.jpg'
And then write it to file:
with open(filename, 'wb') as f:
f.write(file.content)
I've made a bot to download all memories.
You can download it here
It doesn't require any additional installation, just place the memories_history.json
file in the same directory and run it. It skips the files that have already been downloaded.
