And since last Friday, this function has been implemented also on Mac computers. We will tell you how to activate it below.
With Messages in iCloud, your messages will be synchronized on all your devices
Last Friday, in a somewhat unusual way, Apple made available to all users a new version of the macOS High Sierra desktop operating system that brought the important improvement of Messages in iCloud to the Mac.
The first thing you should do, if you haven't already, is to update your Mac to the new macOS 10.13.5 version. This version has been available for all compatible Mac computers since last Friday afternoon through the updates tab of the Mac App Store. As indicated in the notes of the update…
The macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 update improves the stability, performance, and security of your Mac and is recommended for all users.
This update adds support for Messages in iCloud, which allows you to store messages with their attachments in iCloud and free up space on your Mac. To enable Messages in iCloud, go to Preferences in Messages, click Accounts, then select "Enable Messages in iCloud".
As you have already read, activating Messages in iCloud is as simple as opening the Messages app, selecting Messages → Preferences in the menu bar, clicking on Accounts, and proceeding to Activate messages in iCloud.
Once enabled, Messages in iCloud will offer you some benefits. For example, if you delete a message on your Mac, it will disappear from all your Mac, iPhone, and iPad that are running the latest software update. The other benefit is that all message history will appear when setting up a new Mac from scratch. This previously required restoring your Mac from a backup.
