Re: ITunes Backups

Hi Vicki, My understanding is that an encrypted iTunes backup includes exactly the same information as an iCloud backup, so I don't think your messages would be backed up. I would suggest checking with Apple to be sure, though. Best, Anna > On Oct 14, 2019, at 5:13 PM, Vicki W. wrote: >

Yes, you give it access to your Contacts. You create your various groups in the app. Then, you open the app, pick your group, pick whether you want to Text or Email, write your message, and hit send. There are more steps along the way, but it is pretty easy to figure out. HTH, Richard Richard
