1. I ended up using a backup and restore app to get the majority of my messages, although it didn't even do 100%.I've been using this app for a few years now and loved it.
2. The app doesn't show an update since April of 2018, so I guess it is time to move on? I emailed the associated email address a couple of days ago and no response.I've been using it for 5 years on 3 different Samsung phones.
3. The app does a reasonable job at configuring IMAP settings, but if you are very uncomfortable with making IMAP adjustments or are not sure what IMAP is, you will be frustrated if something goes wrong.Because of this app, I have years and years of saved texts in a Gmail folder.
4. It would reliably backup messages a few minutes after I got them (which can be configured) added them all to my Gmail under a configurable folder name, and never failed - until recently.
5. Hoping this changes and sending my appreciation for my past appreciation of how this app has saved me in the past!The battery in my phone was not working properly, so looking for SMS backup apps, I saw that this one was highly rated.
6. Unfortunately in the last couple of years, I've had issues with the auto backup.
7. When I restored the messages on my phone, it only restored about 2 month's worth, even though I set up the backup and restore for "all".
8. No other backup app I find that even comes close to this oneNice idea! I like that it goes to G-Mail and has it's own labels.
9. Today I needed to remove the app from deep sleep power reduction list and I think I had to adjust an IMAP setting one time, but day to day backup is flawless.
10. I don't mind paying for a great app that works as well as this one does (and I can't remember if I have paid in the past before) but reading other comments it sounds like it's not being supported anymore.
11. The auto backup feature doesn't seem to work reliably anymore, even after a full reinstall.
