It is much more of a concern, however, if you plan on using the system to migrate between devices, as the restoration process is quite time-consuming. The backup process for SMS Backup+ is pretty slow, especially over IMAP, but since messages really only need to be backed up once - and since that can be done as they come in without you even noticing - it's not much of a problem. You'll get a system notification once or if that happens, so be on the lookout for that.

To make sure the backup process keeps running smoothly in the background, exempt the app from any battery-saving measures and, on Android 12 and higher, make sure the app doesn't lose its permissions when you don't actively open it for months at a time. It's also able to broadcast an intent at the time of backup for third-party app integration. Data used by the app is pretty minimal, but if you are concerned, you can set it to only make backups on Wi-Fi. I've always found the default settings, which back up incoming messages every minute and outgoing messages every two hours, to be fine. You can set the app to automatically back up messages with a configurable schedule via the "Auto backup" checkbox and associated settings. Should you run into any issues, double-check that you followed the steps above precisely, that IMAP is enabled in Gmail, that security for login in SMS Backup+ is set to TLS, and that the server address (:993) is configured. Tapping the "Backup" button now should trigger a backup successfully.
Once you're done with all that, back out to the app's main screen and backups should be working, though the "Connect" section for linking to a Gmail account will now be grayed out, since we're using the IMAP workaround.

SMS backups created in this way can't be easily copied off or moved elsewhere, as with dedicated apps, and they don't include MMS media. Switch old Android phone to new LG G Series Phone (include LG G5, LG G4, G3, G2, G Flex 2, G Flex), transfer all files from Android device to LG G2, G3, G4 d. You can view the backups (but not their contents) via the Google Drive or Google One Android apps, and the backup process as a whole can be manually triggered in Settings (usually Settings -> System -> Backup, but you can also just search for "Backup."). Even though there's a Google One branding attached in some places, you don't need to pay a dime (unless you run out of Drive storage for other reasons, that is). The data comes courtesy of Android's automatic backups, and they're stored on Google Drive. Tap that "Finish Setup" button, and it'll perform the same restoration maneuver it typically would on initial setup, which can include restoring previously backed-up SMS messages from your devices.
It's only available during the inital setup or if the "Finish setting up" screen is shown at the top of your settings panel later.

Unfortunately, it's not a manual process like the other items on this list. Google Pixel phones have supported restoring backups since Android 8.1, allowing you to automatically transfer key data from your old phone to your new phone (including SMS messages) after the initial setup.
