SMS Backup & Restore

SMS Backup & Restore is a simple Android application that supports and retrieves text messages and phone call logs.

SMS Backup is very flexible for backing up and restoring SMS and MMS (Multimedia Message) messages. You can back up and restore your SMS text messages to the SD card or forward the backups via email, MMS, DropBox or Skype. You can restore your backup from the SD card, or by clicking on the email attachment.
