Comments on SMS Backup for Android

★★★★★ Kyle Lawson, Why on earth would you factory reset your phone without first checking to see if your sms's were backed up correctly and you could open the backup first before resetting your phone? I would never reset my phone until I have opened everything I backed up first and check to see if it worked or not. I would have to say that it was not an issue of this sms backup app as it is your responsibility to make sure that all your items & apps you wanted saved are backed up and stored in the proper cloud, emailed to yourself & that you can "open the file" w/o seeing that "error message that you cannot open this file or file doesn't exist" error message after you back it up or delete anything off your phone UNTIL YOU HAVE LOOKED TO MAKE SURE IT IS DONE PROPERLY before any type of reset is ever done. I hope this info helps save you future frustrations and serves as a reminder to check your backup's before YOU RESET YOUR PHONE. I've been there and know all too well your frustrations & anger you went through knowing your important messages were not properly backed up & your rage when you cannot open that file or see message that "this file doesn't exist". Good luck
★★★★★ Works great! I was upgrading from a Droid X to a Galaxy S3 and wanted save my texts. Advice: to restore, you must copy the saved log and move it to the program In your files.
★★☆☆☆ Lost messages for last 3 years Do not restore messages from backup files sized more than 130kb, at least in my case all backups 300kb and 1500 kb have not been read, if software is still supported , appropriate if this issue is fixed.
★★☆☆☆ Stylesheet/instructions??? I saved my messages, but apparently can't display the xml file without a stylesheet, but where is the stylesheet? I can find no instructions to make this app do a damned thing!
★★☆☆☆ Did not back up texts at all Saved to SD card, and it acted like it was saving it, but when I moved it to the new phone, the file didn't have anything in it. Lost all my texts.
