How to restore SMS from sms.vmsg backup? I made a backup of my contacts and SMS on an Android 6 phone with what I think is a stock Backup &amp; Restore app. I ended up with two files: contact.vcf and sms.vmsg.

However, my new phone (Android 7) doesn't have any preloaded Backup &amp; Restore app. I managed to import contact.vcf via the address book, however the messaging app doesn't seem to have any option to import backed up SMS.

What can I do with this sms.vmsg file to resotre my SMS?
I was able to open my backup with this VMG Converter app. The app requires to buy an unlock code if you want to restore more than 200 messages from the backup, so I didn't use it in the end, but it could have been an option if no other backup was available.
