I found an ip address under gmail security recent activity that I don't recognize but seems it might be linked to your app 184.151.114.7. Is this the case?

Maybe your mobile phone's provider IP?

Could it be? My own ip address begins with 64. Sorry, I don't know too much about this stuff.

The string after authorized application is related to your app

Well, if you want to be extra cautious I'd recommend to change your password and revoke access to everything you don't need / don't recognize. SMS Backup+ uses Android's own security / account log in mechanism and should therefore be reasonably safe.
