How to save text messages on an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4?

[AC Question]

My messaging app is getting dreadfully slow but I've never deleted a text message and have had the phone for over a year, so I imagine it has at least surpassed ten thousand. How can I save these text messages to my computer so that I can wipe my inbox?

SMS Backup+ puts them in a folder on your pc's Gmail inbox where you can edit them.
Not sure about 10,000 but why not!
