It works for all messages, that is, SMS and iMessages. You turn it on in the iCloud account settings and it uploads everything. The device needs to be connected to mains power though. Otherwise it pauses the sync process until you do. The upload/download progress is shown at the bottom of the screen in the Messages app.
- miles 8y agoAny chance of auto-reply (not just "Do Not Disturb while driving") at long last? I've had to keep an old jailbroken 4s around with iBlackList on it in order to auto-reply to SMS and iMessage texts[1], as scripting in Messages for macOS is just so buggy.

- newscracker 8y agoNot from Apple with so much flexibility. But there could be third party apps that use Apple's CallKit SDK to provide something similar for calls. I'd also suggest sending feedback to Apple periodically at https://www.apple.com/feedback https://www.apple.com/feedback even if it seems like the feedback is never taken into account for changes or new features.
