There are lots of apps that can export messages to HTML and other formats, but after doing some searching I didn’t find any for markdown. I know SMS are mostly text but markdown is a plain text file format which support text formats like bullets, headings, and media (usually by referencing image, video, or audio files in the same folder or in a sub-folder). That would be nice for reading and searching through in apps like Obsidian.

I'm not sure about exporting directly to markdown, but if you can export to HTML, what about using an HTML to markdown converter on that?

I think SMS Backup Restore can export to HTML.

Export to HTML, use pandoc (or sed/awk) to convert to markdown.
