Transcription of video:
Are you also a bit frustrated after getting a new Android phone and realizing that during the setup process, your text messages didn't get transferred to the new phone? Fortunately, there is a relatively simple solution to this, and I'm going to show you in this video. First of all, you want to install the application, SMS, backup, and restore on both your devices. This is my new pixel 4. A, and I am opening the app there. This is my old Galaxy S8 where I'm opening the app. Then you want to go to the transfer page on both the phones. On the old phone, you will click send from this phone. Then you need to accept all the permits that it is asking for, both during install and for transferring. On the new phone, you press receive on this phone, and then you let it receive data here. Now you need to be on the same Wi-Fi network with both phones. The phone is showing up on the old one here. You can click on it and then you can accept the pairing. When I accept the pairing, I once again have to accept and restore here. And when I click that, it starts transferring the text messages from the old phone to the new one.

I get a prompt here. Do you want to transfer messages and phones from the phone like it is right now? Or do you want to use a backup? I want to do it with the current state of this phone. I have 852 calls in my log and about 5,200 text messages that are now being transferred over Wi-Fi. It takes a bit of waiting time for it to compress everything and send it over to the new phone. Once it's done, the old phone is done with the process and we can put it away. The new phone prompts me that it has to change the standard app for text messages to be able to restore the messages. I will let it do that and change the standard app for SMS, backup, and restore so that it can restore all my calls and my messages, and then I will be able to switch back to the regular messaging app. It then restores all the calls and texts from the backup that I just transferred. After a bit of waiting time, it says that it has successfully transferred my phone calls and messages. I then go into my text messages app, and there I just click the button to set this as the standard for messages.

After a little bit of waiting time, my old text messages seem to be all restored here in the phone. Now I have some 6,000 text messages that I can keep as memories from times that has been.
