About this app

Join 20 million happy users and unleash your creativity!

1. Write a text conversation in TextingStory
2. Create a video with your story
3. Watch it and share it

TextingStory allows you to write conversations just like any messaging app, except you can switch side by swiping left or right over the message area. You can also press the characters' names.

Take all the time you need to write your texting stories. The videos are automatically accelerated for a consistently fast-paced result!

Every key stroke is recorded so feel free to play with corrections, hesitations or misspells!

This is a simple app with endless possibilities.

TextingStory pioneered a new video format in 2016 and has become wildly successful on various social media, with some users getting tens of millions of views of their videos. It got its own Know Your Meme entry and T-Mobile even reproduced it in a 2019 Superbowl ad.

TextingStory is also a popular app in education for spicing up course material or hands on activities with students.

Not a bad app. But I noticed that the videos don't generate anymore after you leave the app while before the update you could just exit the app and the videos continued generating. Is there a way you could bring this back? It's annoying to wait until the video is done before you can leave, especially since sometimes it takes a long time before the generating is finished.

This app is (mostly) great, because yes, it does have some flaws. While I don't mind having to pay to remove sounds or a watermark, I don't like that I have to pay for just changing the colours. I feel like something that basic should be free and not behind a paywall, ESPECIALLY because I remember that it used to be free a few years ago. Please make it so that changing the colours is free again.

Works as intended. It's a better alternative to c.ai, but... the fact there's only two usable colors makes me less immersed. It is BAD when two of them have the same color and I just can't imagine them as two different people. Would have been fine if given at least the whole rainbow (ROYGBV), but all we got is purple and blue. Disappointing.
