Trial/Pro Versions
"SMS Backup & Restore", even though it performs a simple task, is a major project to develop and maintain. Because there are so many devices and so many different apps for texting, it requires constant attention, development, and improvements. in order to keep it moving, there is a symbolic fee for unlocking all the features.
The free version allows you to share 6 messages each time and includes ads. It is a bit more complex but it actually allows the full functionality, especially for shorter conversions. If you upgrade to pro, you can send all the messages in one go.

Editor's Take
SMS Backup, Print & Restore sits at 4.5 stars across 14 thousand ratings on Google Play, and is still building an audience.
That score is hard to fake on a utility app — it usually signals a tool that stays out of your way, does one thing well, and doesn't pepper you with upsells.
GilApps is the publisher behind this release; we'd suggest taking a quick look at their other titles on Google Play if the style clicks with you. The last visible update lands 2025-10-28, which is a small but useful signal that the team is still shipping fixes rather than treating the app as abandoned.
