About SMS files
SMS files are a type of file format used for storing text messages on mobile phones. They are often used by users to back up their text messages or transfer them to a new device. SMS files are not compatible with most computer operating systems, and they require specialized software to open and view them.
The most common SMS file types are .sms and .smsbackup. These files can be converted into other formats such as .txt, .csv, .xml, and .html using software such as various tools, appropriate programs, and other software. However, it is important to note that the conversion process can be difficult and time-consuming, and the resulting files may not be as accurate as the original SMS files.
In addition, SMS files may contain sensitive information such as phone numbers and other personal information, so it is important to consider the security implications of converting them into other formats. Furthermore, the conversion process can be complicated and may require a certain level of technical knowledge. For these reasons, it is often recommended to use a free and easy online website such as Convert.Guru to convert SMS files.
Convert.Guru analyzes your SMS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted XML, TXT, MMS, SMSBACKUP, VMG, DB, ZIP, JPG, IB, ROM, VMSG, DAT and PDF files.

Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our SMS converter.
