About SMS Backup & Restore
An easy-to-use application that allows users to save and recover SMS and MMS messages as well as call histories.
SMS Backup & Restore functions as a tool to create copies of SMS and MMS texts alongside call records available on the device. Additionally, it can retrieve messages and call logs from pre-existing backups.
Please Note: To restore call logs and messages, this application must have access to existing backups. Without them, recovery is not possible.
