Ratings and reviews

It continually marks junk files as files I have not used in a while. It should allow you to see what it's marking as junk so you can make a decision. second, as of newest update it refuses to back up mms, sms, call logs, saying I must go into app and approve back up. There is no setting for that in any of those apps nor in Us Cell Protect. Then it keeps sending me emails about the junk files for 2 years now. Please address the above issues.

I have to keep unstalling and reinstalling 🤔why? I've started using this app 2020. Here it's 2024, and I'm still having the same problem 😕 🙃. SUCKS..... still happing to this day 07 /11 /24

Lost my phone. When I received a replacement I tried to restore my data, pics, ect that I had been backing up on the old phone to the new one. No dice. Contacted support and after an impersonal conversation via e-mail I was told I had never performed a backup on the old phone which is hard to believe because I remember performing a number of backups because this was one of the main reasons I pay for this service!! Would not rely on this product to reliably back up your data!!!
