Collected data
Your iMessages
messages
Sender/recipient, text content, timestamp, service (iMessage or SMS), is_from_me flag, attachment presence.
Your iMessage chat participants
participants
Chat and counterparty handle. is_from_me reports whether that handle has ever sent a message in the chat (a participant-level ‘has this contact spoken here’ marker) — not the per-message sender flag used in the messages stream, and best-effort only: the device owner’s own handle is frequently absent from chat_handle_join entirely.
Your iMessage attachments
attachments
Filename, MIME type, size, linked message/chat when detectable, and a blob reference when the local file was hydrated.
