    Saved me, just moved over from lumia 950 xl to an android. No problems at all exported sms from my win mob, imported in this app. Good clear instructions on what was needed to be done between the steps. Lets see if this android is anything to have or if I should move back to the lumia yet again :/

    Could not have been happier with this app. Everything worked as it should have and the tutorial video was so helpful and easy to follow. I did encounter a problem as my Windows phone didn't have the contacts+message system setting nor "files" application (I lost a lot of things due to faulty phone/SD card) however I found a way around this by using Transfer My Data > ... > Export to SD card > text messages / MMS. I could then dump the backup file to PC and then to my Android device.

    This is an excellent app which is easy 2 use & with no ads. It does exactly what the author says it will do. I wud have given it 10 stars. Ive just imported over 2,100 text messages from my Microsoft Lumia 640 XL to my Infinix Note 7 with all their original dates & time plus emojis, all in one go. This is the best app for importing SMSs from Windows Phone to Android. A Million thanks 2 the developer 4 saving my texts. Many thanks to yo galfriend for motivating u to develop this app. Long live.

    I've just imported 120 000 SMS from Lumia 820. It took about 28 hours but it worked. But now I have a serious problem that the Android Messages app is trying to show notifications for every one of the imported messages. It's just endlessly spamming notifications which I can't get rid of. The only way to stop it is to block notifications from the Messages app in system settings. But this isn't an acceptable solution. What can I do? Other than that and the mentioned really slow import, my only complaint is that a messages that came from the same contact but were sent from a different numbers are shown in a separate threads (they were in the same thread in WP). Edit: Disabling notifications from Messages app for a few hours and then enabling them again seemed to get rid of the accumulated notifications. Everything seems to be okay now.

    I've just successfully imported over 25K SMS from my aging Lumia 640 LTE to my Samsung Galaxy A10. The whole process was rather simple & easy, and it was finished in 40 minutes or so without any issues whatsoever. No notifications were received, but it took the A10's Messages app a few extra minutes to finish arranging the newly loaded conversations after opening it for the first time, although that wasn't a problem at all. Thank you so much for developing this.

    The fact that it no longer works with more recent versions of Android should be reason to consider if it should be still available... I have a Razer Phone... Not a Xiaomi, Oppo or Vivo. I tried importing, I saw the import progression bar and then there were no messages there. I can't be sure if they were not imported or if they were imported the wrong way. On the good side of things, there's the paid version that imported messages correctly.

    I used it when I wanted to pass my messages from Nokia Lumia 532 to Xiaomi Redmi note 7... everything was done flawlessly, I highly recommend it!

    Fantastic app. Very easy to use if you follow the instructions. I had to download the Pro version of the app to convert my Windows Phone message backup file. Then went back to this app to import the messages. Took around 15 minutes in total and now I have my complete Windows Phone text message history from 2012 to 2019 on my new Samsung Galaxy. Next I will try to transfer my WhatsApp messages with Leonardo's other app

    Just imported more than 1,000 messages, icons included,, from my Nokia Lumia 920 into my new Nokia 6.1. The 920 has no SD card, but creating annd transferrring the WP .msg worked exactly as described in the video. The actual import into the Messages app too than 1 minute and the notiifcations quickly stopped. Maybe it helped that I quickly went into settings and selected 'mark all as read'. Highly recommended Thank you so much for sharing and for your extremely helpful video, Leonardo!

    Dude, you're the best, my hero. Forced to abandon Windows 10 Mobile and my Lumia 950 and switch to far worse OS - Android...Now I have to install app for anything...open app to see what's goin' on...instead of just glympse into Live Tiles...Anyway: I backed up my sms and mms using contacts+messages backup app on windows phone, transfered backup to onedrive, got it on Android from onedrive and then start this marvelous app, pressed restore, and my arround 11k messages showed up on Messages app on my Android. I am not using Whatsapp, but will buy this app for restore. Big fan! Btw, Samsung A70, no problem occured during all this. One more thing: if i find a picture of this guy Leonardocezarÿ, I would definitely make it a desktop background on my laptop...
