Hey there tancyfrancis,


You can use iCloud to keep your messages synced in case you want to access from other devices using the same account. Once you have it set up to use iCloud for Messages, they will automatically sync, but keep in mind that any synced content is not backed up, so if you delete a message it would be removed from all synced devices. For guidance on how this works, continue with the link below:

If you do not use iCloud for Messages, any backups of your entire device would also include messages. However, it's not possible to only back up your messages: Back up iPhone - Apple Support


Take care!
