01. The fake text format
What a Fake Text Video Is
A fake text video is a story told as a phone screen recording: a contact name in the header, grey bubbles from them, blue bubbles from you, the typing dots before every reply, and a send or receive tone as each message lands. The viewer reads along and waits for the next text, which is exactly the loop short-form rewards.
AutoFeed writes the conversation from one topic line, holds it to the number of texts you pick (6 to 14), and voices each side with its own ElevenLabs narrator so it sounds like two people, not one person reading a transcript. Each text waits for its narrator to finish before the next one appears, so the length follows the writing. It can also draw a few older, ordinary messages above a "Today" separator, so the thread looks like one that was already going.

How the Fake Text Generator Works
Every step is a screen in the editor, in the order you meet it.
- 01
Describe the conversation
One line on who is texting and what has gone wrong: "A landlord texting about something found in the apartment", "A dog walker who has lost the dog". Name the relationship and the trouble; the contact name in the header bar is the first thing a viewer reads. - 02
Pick how many texts
6 to 14 messages, 10 by default. The editor shows the approximate length as you change it, because every text waits for its voice to finish. - 03
Decide on earlier messages
Auto lets the writer add a few older texts above the story only when the contact would have some (a mum or an ex gets them, an unknown number does not). Always gives every conversation a history; Never starts from an empty thread. - 04
Choose the two voices
One ElevenLabs voice reads their messages and another reads yours. The defaults are a woman and a younger man, so the two sides are audibly different from the first exchange; pick the same voice twice if you want a single narrator. - 05
Set the phone and the background
Dark or light phone theme (dark by default). The background is the plain iMessage canvas unless you pick a gameplay category, which loops a clip from the same 21-clip pool Reddit Stories uses. Music is off by default so the send and receive tones carry the video, with the 87-track library one tab away. - 06
Render, then let it run
Export at 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1. Download it, or attach the format to a series and AutoFeed writes and posts a new conversation to TikTok and YouTube Shorts at every slot.

Fake Text Conversations That Hold Attention
A fake text video works when the first two texts open a question the last one answers. Each line below names who is texting and what has gone wrong, which is all the writer needs.
Paste any of these into the Conversation box on the Content tab. The writer turns it into the full chat, contact name included.
Family
The contact name does half the work: Mum, Dad, Grandma.
A mother who has just seen a bank statement she was not meant to see
The reveal is what was bought, saved for the last text.
A sibling asking to borrow money they already took
Works because the reader knows before the sender admits it.
A dad who finally learned how to use the group chat
Light, safe for every audience, easy to run as a weekly series.
Relationships
Keep the stakes personal and the ending open enough to comment on.
An ex texting the night before a wedding
A best friend who stayed at the party after you left
A partner who found an old photo on the shared tablet
Let the history setting add the ordinary texts before it.
Suspense
Unknown numbers and late-night texts suit the dark theme.
An unknown number that knows where the car is parked
A neighbour who has been watching the front door
A babysitter asking who the other adult in the house is
Set history to Never: a new contact has no earlier messages.
Work and everyday chaos
Comedy lands best with short messages and a fast back-and-forth.
A boss texting at 2am about a deleted file
A landlord texting about something found in the apartment
A dog walker who has lost the dog
Fake Text Questions, Answered
Are the conversations real?
No. Every conversation is written fresh from your topic line, contact name included. Nothing is taken from anyone’s phone.
Why two voices?
Because one voice reading both sides sounds like a transcript, not a conversation. Each side gets its own ElevenLabs narrator; the defaults are deliberately a woman and a younger man so the difference is obvious from the first exchange. Set both to the same voice if you prefer one narrator.
How long is a fake text video?
It follows the writing. Each text appears, its narrator reads it, and only then does the next one start, so 10 short texts make a shorter video than 10 long ones. The editor shows the approximate length while you set the message count.
What are the earlier messages?
A few ordinary older texts shown above a "Today" separator, so the thread looks like one that was already going before the drama starts. On Auto the writer decides from who is texting: a mum, an ex or a landlord gets a history, an unknown number or a delivery driver does not.
Can I put gameplay behind the phone?
Yes. Pick a background category and a clip from the same gameplay pool as Reddit Stories loops behind the chat. The default is the plain iMessage canvas, because gameplay is the thing that most gives a "real phone" video away.
How much does one cost?
A flat 1,000 credits per video, at any message count.
Can a fake text series run on autopilot?
Yes. Attach the format to a series, pick the days and the whole-hour slots you want, and AutoFeed generates a fresh video and publishes it to your connected TikTok and YouTube Shorts accounts in your own timezone. Plans cap a series at 3, 7 or 14 posts per week.
