really sucks that they neutered their working backup solution in the name of security. here's a tip: blind security is secondary to necessary functionality. if the user wishes to backup their data, that needs to be a priority above all else. encrypt it, make it only work with SafetyNet, whatever you have to do to make the backup secure - but backups *must* function properly for other security measures to make sense. if a phone dies, a proper, full backup *must* exist.

I just think phone's sell and go out of date faster than a free so can keep up with. I thought this one would be better, but half of my data is still missing inspite of giving the 3 days to back everything up that was supposed to be enough time. I'm missing more than 4,300 text messages. An "expert" sold me this app (first month free) and starting next month, that's supposed start billing my account $3/month.

Confused??? If this is for Pixel phones only, WHY did this app come on my new Motorola that we just bought last week? Or was it "automatically" downloaded by 1 of the 3 bloatware apps that were "suggesting" apps (they came automatically on the phone) - basically all 3 of them were hidden and secretly downloading things onto the phone...this is ridiculous. I'm going down the list of apps in my settings and searching the ones I don't recognize one by one. This is one.
