In my case, it took over 30 minutes to finish the process, but this time depends on how many messages you have on your device (in my case, close 5000). If you don’t have too many text messages on your smartphone, the sync process will finish much quicker.
The app itself is has a very simple interface, similar to other PC-to-Smartphone messengers. On the left side of the screen, you will a list of recipients, while the main part of the screen is taken by the conversation. This makes it very easy to read your conversations.

If you want to see a list of all your contacts, you have to click the button at the top left corner, next to the “+” button (which is for creating a new message). This will forward you to a page that contains all your contacts. As you can see, the app’s UI is very simple and clean looking. This makes it very easy to create and read messages.

After trying out the app, I was very pleased with the result.

The fact that users can benefit from the services provided by Mysms from different devices running on different platforms is a feature that few others support.
