Samsung text message transfer smart switch

[AC Question]

I've just completed a samsung smart switch transfer of all files from a Samsung s4 to s7, however the text messages didn't transfer. I attempted this several more times and although it reads transfer complete, no texts a showing up on my s7. Any ideas why?

Try using this app below, I use it all the time and find it easier to use than the Smart Switch app. It does your call logs as well. You will need to remove the backup data from the old phone and move it to the new phone.
