You can save messages on your phone by moving them from the Inbox to the Archive folder.
Note: If Auto-Export is enabled, messages are automatically backed up and the Archive folder is not available.
The maximum message limit for all folders combined (Inbox, Archive, and Trash) is 1,250. Once you reach this limit, you will get a message telling you to delete some messages before you can receive new messages. Moving messages to the Trash folder does not reduce the 1,250 count; however, deleting messages from the Archive folder does reduce the count.
You may also archive messages by forwarding them to an email address. There is an Auto-Forward to email feature for Premium service subscribers that automatically forwards messages to a designated email address.
Here are some ways to archive a message:
● In the Inbox, long press (tap and hold) a message to select it. You can also tap the Contact/Image icon to select a message. Tap the overflow menu and then select Archive.
● In the Inbox, swipe your finger from left to right on a message. Tap Archive to confirm the action. Tap Undo to cancel the action.
● In the Message Playback screen, tap the Archive icon .
