App Backup & Restore

App Backup & Restore is an app for Android devices that lets you back up apps and other items.

App Backup & Restore is a free Android app that helps you back up apps and other items. You can back these items up to local storage, such as an SD card or a desktop PC, but you can also back them up to a cloud. Using the cloud gives you access wherever you have an Internet connection.

You can back up apps and restore them to the same device later on. You can also transfer them to other devices. This is particularly convenient when you want the same app on numerous devices or you want to share an app with a friend without them having to download it from the store.

When backing up and transferring, App Backup & Restore also accounts for all updates downloaded since installation. That means no unnecessary updates. It also means that you can use this app to downgrade installations to previous versions.

This app is also a convenient tool for backing up, restoring and transferring SMS messages, call logs, your contacts and so forth. If you choose to use the cloud, the app has built-in support for Google Drive, Dropbox and many other popular options.

App Backup & Restore is a very useful app, but it’s biggest omission is that it can’t transfer, back up or restore app settings. This can’t be a technical limitation since there are other apps that can, for instance, back your app with settings to the cloud and then restore them later. If you can overlook that shortcoming, this is a great app that will come in handy often.
