FakeChatHow to Create a Chat Mockup
in 3 Simple Steps
FakeChatMaker lets you turn a fictional conversation or interface idea into a visual chat mockup. Choose a chat style, build the conversation, review the preview and export the finished image.
Choose Your Platform
Start by selecting which messaging app you want to replicate. FakeChatMaker supports four of the most popular platforms:
- •WhatsApp — the world's most popular messaging app interface
- •Instagram — DM interface with bubbles, reactions, and verified badges
- •Snapchat — yellow-themed interface with streak and snap indicators
- •Facebook Messenger — blue bubble layout with emoji reactions
Build Your Conversation
Add Messages
Type your messages into the message input box. Switch between sender and receiver to create a real back-and-forth conversation. No message limit.
Customize Profiles
Enter custom names for each person in the chat. Upload your own profile pictures or use the default avatar placeholder.
Set Timestamps
Add realistic timestamps to each message. Toggle read receipts on or off for WhatsApp chats.
Choose Your View & Download
Select Your Device View
Before downloading, choose how you want to preview your chat — mobile phone, tablet, desktop, or enter a custom screen size in pixels. The preview updates instantly.
Export in HD
Click the 'Download' button to save your fake chat as a high-definition PNG image. No email, no account, no waiting.
Export
Download the finished image using the export options available in the tool. Before publishing, check whether the context needs a visible “Fictional Conversation” or “Mockup” disclosure.
💡 Tips for a Clear, Professional Chat Mockup
Use fictional identities
Choose invented names and avatars unless you have permission to use a real person’s identity.
Keep the conversation readable
Use natural message lengths and enough spacing for viewers to follow the dialogue easily.
Choose the right layout
Use the platform inspired layout that fits your project, then check the preview at the size where the image will actually be shown.
Keep details internally consistent
Timestamps, reactions, message order and status indicators should support the fictional scenario rather than distract from it.
Disclose when necessary
If viewers could reasonably believe the conversation is genuine, label the image as fictional, dramatized or a mockup.
Protect private information
Do not upload or publish private photos, phone numbers, usernames or other personal information without appropriate permission.
