I have a lot of pictures that I took in Messages and texted to people, but I also want to have on my computer.

So get this, I have to select each one individually and "save" it so that I can export it with iPhoto (or Photos now apparently)?

OR I can pay $35 to some nerd that figured out how to write a horrible GUI program that does it.

I hate that this is difficult. Coupled with my hatred of Verizon Wireless, I'm switching to Google Fi

They are all probably hidden in messages attachments because apple doesn't understand how people use their phones.

You can get a 128GB Nexus 6 from google

Yeah, click on each picture individually.

Click on each of the 600 pictures in each of a dozen conversations by hand separately.
