How to Backup Apps on Android Phone
Last Updated on December 8, 2020 by Jason BenRich app services are what makes our phone powerful and smart, and app-data is what makes it personal. When an app is installed, the system gives it its own per-user data stores for settings and files. Chat history, search history, and locating information etc. Android users are always aware of backing up normal files like photos, videos, contacts and so on while backing up app-data is always ignored. Since app-data is so important that it is even safety related, we highly recommend that you should backup apps on your Android phone regularly and keep your personal data safe. Since Android system doesn’t provide a solution of backing up app data, and none of the OEMs either. But, thankfully, there is an app for this.
