Comments on SMS Backup, Print & Restore for Android

★★★★★ Gregory Scherf · Aug 18, 2026

I have been using this app for a number of years now, and it is exactly what I need. It allows me to select the conversation and export a PDF directly into the work side of my phone and save it to my work OneDrive. The app exports the text messages in a clean, easy to read format, logs date and time and is intuitive to use. They keep the app updated so that it keeps on working as you would expect.

★★★★☆ Fletcher Gerhardt · Aug 7, 2026

Very helpful. This app makes it very easy to back up any message files that you may have in case you lose your phone or break it, so that you can keep your records for whatever you need them for. The only issue I had on a very large file was that I needed to get the pro version, but this was thousands of messages, so it's useful to pretty much anybody.

★★★★★ Joshua Cartlidge · Jun 12, 2026

Excellent app to back up and print all of your texts! Allows you to export in several formats and print for specific dates if you only need a few from long text threads. I had an issue with my lifetime purchase being recognized, but it was something the dev patched quickly and personally took care of when I brought it to their attention. I highly recommend this app to everyone and is worth the purchase.

★☆☆☆☆ Mith Coriel · Jun 19, 2026

Can't export more than 6 messages without paying. When I select 6 messages and press backup, I get an ad for the paid version, and it doesn't actually create a backup.

★☆☆☆☆ Bill Christensen · Sep 3, 2026

Yah so I downloaded this for backing up my late dads texts. You can't do anything without premium sub ($20). Was willing to do that once for the convince. It then said you cant purchase through Google playbwith "this version" and to contact support for alternate methods of payment. This is super, super sketchy. I recommend you stay far away from this app till google catches on and removes it from the store.

★☆☆☆☆ Will Bach · Sep 1, 2026

Unable to save a text thread as a PDF. Even paid $20 for the lifetime version, and it still is only making backup files instead of PDFs that I can utilize.
