Trial/Pro Versions
"SMS Backup & Restore", even though it performs a simple task, is a major project to develop and maintain. Because there are so many devices and so many different apps for texting, it requires constant attention, development, and improvements. in order to keep it moving, there is a symbolic fee for unlocking all the features.
The free version allows you to share 6 messages each time and includes ads. It is a bit more complex but it actually allows the full functionality, especially for shorter conversions. If you upgrade to pro, you can send all the messages in one go.

Personal note from the developer:
I'm very grateful to know that the app is serving many of you in important cases like getting justice or saving important messages from your families. I do the best I can to remember this and improve the app as much as I can with the intention to help in needed times and not just to treat it as a business. If you are in urgent need of the app, yet can not afford it at the moment, please contact me.

I bought this a couple years ago, and pretty much regret the purchase, it works just enough to say it does, but if you have long texts with lots of pictures it never seems to get all the pictures, not sure about the texts as the one's I'm interested in saving are years long, over the past couple years I have reached out to support but got nothing back, seems to work ok for texts with only a year in length

My phone was doing weird stuff with the app and I needed these conversations for court. Gil worked extensively with me to get the issue figured out and I now have several perfectly executed files of different conversations. Fantastic app and customer service!

I found using this app on my Android phone to be quite simple. I only accessed the print feature in txt. file version but it was enough for what I needed. Reasonably priced for lifetime use.
