insightme 1.1.2

Personal analytics tool for iMessage and Call History on macOS

insightme

Local-only analytics for iMessage, Call History, and macOS Contacts names on macOS. Data never leaves your machine — think Spotify Wrapped for messages and calls.

Requirements

• macOS with Messages / Phone / Contacts data
• Python 3.11+
• Full Disk Access for the app that runs the tool (e.g. Terminal):
  System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access → add that app
  Then run insightme from your terminal

Install and Run

Pip install

pip install insightme

Run it in terminal

insightme

The insightme command starts the Streamlit UI. Open the URL shown in the terminal (usually http://localhost:8501).

High level workflow

1. Run on your Mac with Full Disk Access for the terminal as above.
2. To avoid locking and race conditions with system apps, SQLite files (where the message/call/contacts data are) are copied to a temporary directory and read from the copy.
3. SQL loads messages, calls, and address-book rows into pandas DataFrames for analytics.
4. Analytics live under src/insightme/analytics/.
5. The Streamlit app (default port 8501) renders dashboards locally.
