Features & Capabilities

Privacy Friendly Backup is an application that works with other privacy friendly apps to enable backups. The app allows you to create and manage backups. This includes importing backups into the app and exporting backups to external storage media.
The Privacy Friendly Backup app communicates with other Privacy Friendly apps and extracts or injects data into and out of the app to enable the creation and restoration of backups.

The app provides encryption via an interface to another app that provides encryption as functionality via the openpgp-api. The user is free to choose their own encryption provider via the app's settings.
For encryption to work, the provider must be installed externally. We recommend https://www.openkeychain.org/ , as this app is available in the regular PlayStore as well as in the F-Droid Store and is completely open source.

It does what it's supposed to do with no funny business. A solid app from an awesome dev team.

My device is running on Android 9 and I tried to backup notes, no matter how many times I try, the backup was never successful. Update 1: Thanks for your response. My issue has been resolved. I kept the Notes app running in the background and used Backup application to backup notes data and it was succeeded. Thanks team for such a great app.
