How to Set Up Automatic Backup on Android | androidbasement - Official Site

The "Automatic Backup" is a very useful function because it automatically saves and regulates the data on your Android. In this way you will not have to fear for your data (contacts, photos, videos, etc.) as in case of formatting the device or accidental deletion of data you can immediately take advantage of the latest backup created to restore the data on your mobile or tablet Android.

Unfortunately there are so many who have not activated the automatic backup on Android then they are forced to use software such as dr.fone for Android to recover deleted data from the device (but this is not always possible because the deleted and overwritten data can no longer be recovered).




The automatic backup function on Android uses the Google account: all information is stored on it and made available for possible restoration.

Tips on using Automatic backup on Android

Tip 1. Keep WiFi or Internet Data on

It is mandatory to keep the Wi-Fi or Internet connection active to automatically backup data on Android. If you have an unstable connection it is not recommended to have the automatic backup function enabled.


Tip 2. Keep your device charged

This is another important tip to make automatic backup without problems as, without loading, the automatic backup function will not be activated.

Tip 3. Keep your Android device idle for 1 hour

The device must be inactive for at least 1 hour to start the automatic backup. In fact, this function does not start if the phone is running.

It is enough that one of the three points above is not implemented and the backup will not take place. If you are in urgent need to make a backup, in that case we suggest using a software such as Mobiletrans, MobileGO o TunesGO, which are able to make manual and customized backups in minutes.
