SMS Import / Export is a sibling project to sms-db, a Linux tool to build an SQLite database out of collections of SMS and MMS messages in various formats. sms-db can import JSON files created by SMS Import / Export, and it can export its database to JSON files that can be imported by SMS Import / Export.

Overhauled Scheduled Exports: Added a custom "Export interval (days)" setting alongside displays showing the dates and times of the last successful and next scheduled export.
