Syncing messages

You can keep the content on your mobile device in sync with Nokia Ovi Suite. This means you can access the same content either on your mobile device or on a computer. If you ever lose your device, all your content will be safe in Nokia Ovi Suite. You can select which content types you want to sync, for example contacts, messages and photos.

In Nokia Ovi Suite Home you can easily see how many new messages you have on your device ready to be synced to your computer.
