About SMS Backup

This application easily enables you to create a backup of your SMS messages.

The application will save your SMS messages to html-files, which are easy to handle.

The files will be stored on your sd-card. You can copy them to your computer and easily view or search them with a webbrowser of your choice.

The application creates 3 html-files:
- one for the inbox
- one for messages you've sent
- one with a thread-view like the default messaging application.

The application is able to store backups from different dates in different folders.

Simple, lightweight program that saved all my text conversations to an HTML file that I can view or export. Very nicely done! No stupid ads either!

It is light and fast and perfect. (Thank you for making it that way!) It is a fast download and does one thing and one thing well. Thankyou!

D70%

It sends the image of all conversations to an html file that is easy to find in the phone. It would be better if it made a separate file for each conversation but at least it clearly indicates where each conversation starts and ends.

Amazing and very simple. It has everything I need: ability to search, conversations, dates, etc. Very easy to use. Loved it!

All threads are in 1 file so if you want one, you have to have all the others too.

R70%

This is the ONLY app I could find that exported both the sent and received messages in a format I could email, however I could not select a single conversation and had to export all the texts I ever received alltogether.

Highly recommend with no concerns of data being intercepted. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to configure, just run and be done. So glad to find something that helps and saves time for a change. THANK YOU Stefan Karg!

Simply and easily saves all of my SMS messages, allowing me to periodically clean out my SMS log without fear of deleting messages that I may later need to reference.

by D####:

Simple app that does exactly what it promises. I like that it generates an html file which can be opened anywhere. I just hope they can find a way to index or list the logs per contacts in a chronological manner where i dont have to scroll though the entire html file to find the message im looking for.

This is by far the best sms back up. Backing this up to html is just genius. Makes viewing txts simple and easy 5 stars all the way!!!

All I wanted was a simple way to get the SMS on my phone onto the PC to print if needed. Don't want to send from my PC, restore to a phone or anything fancy. This is perfect, and does exactly what I wanted. Should be a simple thing implemented in Android by default when you connect to a computer. And having it as an HTML file also allows pulling out specific messages. Absolutely fills the void, since most other apps want to do much more. Many thanks!
