As we already know that Google allows us to back up our text messages via Google One, but it can\u2019t actually back up this data via Google Messages itself.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google Messages Getting Backup Feature <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering this issue, Google turns out to be working on a backup and restore solution for the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are wondering about this app here in this article, you will get all the details regarding how it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After going through the latest beta version of the Google Messages app (version 20241118_02_RC00), the sources<\/a> discovered numerous references to a backup and restore option in the app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Backup For Conversations, Media, and More <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Google Messages could prompt you to activate backup functionality, but the option should also be accessible via the app\u2019s settings menu under \u201cbackup & sync\u201d as revealed in the images referred to by the sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, they reveal plenty of details about how Google Messages backup and restore should work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is so confirmed by the company saying \u201cconversations, media, and more\u201d can be backed up and restored. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, the service provider also  uses end-to-end encryption for your backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is noteworthy here that this understandably requires your device to have screen lock enabled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While talking about this, Google confirmed that your conversations will be automatically restored after signing in to Messages, so you don\u2019t need to manually restore your chats in theory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to this, the service provider  could also let you \u201cdelete and start\u201d a new backup or use Messages without backup functionality if your backup can\u2019t be restored to your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of its images reveals a toggle to only sync photos and videos via Wi-Fi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This looks like a handy addition in line with other messaging apps, as it  allows users to sync their text history over mobile data while preserving your mobile data cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, the company has not given any input on a release date for this feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although, it would be a very convenient addition to Messages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be a pleasant addition after we discovered several more features coming to Google Messages such as the ability to choose photo quality before sending, sensitive content warnings for NSFW images, and a new way to check timestamps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
