Title: Unnecessary Duplicate Rating: 2/5 stars If you already have a photo settings app, this sms backup app feels unnecessary. I don't see the reason to have a separate version. It's not bringing anything new or innovative to the table.

Best case- this app is a waste of time, worst case- it's a scam to get data. They will gain access to your files and "back them up" all phones do that automatically. The reason I downloaded this was to help transfer my messages from Android to iPhone that didn't make it with the initial MoveIOS. This app was not the solution. Super bad! No way to transfer, no way to "restore" after backup. Even after paying 😡
