Comments on SMS Backup, Print & Restore for Android

★★★★★ Sue MP · Jul 26, 2026

For my purposes which are to just download my text messages to my computer just save them as a diary, this is just what I needed. So I really can't comment on other features but when I use the text download and open it in word it's very nice. I don't use it for images, so I can't comment on that because I save my images separately. I had another app that was very simple but doesn't seem to work anymore, so I was looking for something that was simple and this works.

★★★★★ 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.

★☆☆☆☆ 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.

★☆☆☆☆ 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.

★☆☆☆☆ 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.
