Back-Up your device With truBackUp
Monday, July 29, 2013
At least once it happened to all of us to accidentally delete some data or any kind of file which we may later need or wish we had. Therefore making regular backups of our data is a great thing in many ways. One of the many applications for Android that offer this feature is truBackup.
With truBackup you can do scheduled backups at any time, and the application includes backup of contacts, SMS messages, applications and other files, and this is all stored on your Dropbox space. However, TruBackUp can’t save your app data or app settings, but it can back up the apk files.
The application has simple design with clear navigation that enables you quick completion of your actions. From the home screen with just one tap you can make a backup/restore your data and you can choose when to make backups. The menu "My Devices" shows you all the devices that are connected to your Dropbox account.
Once you start the application, you will first need to connect with your Dropbox to let the truBackup save and sync the account. Also, you can easily choose which things to be backed up, and this is followed by information about the size of the files. With the option to schedule the backup, you can set multiple backups in one day. Also, it is possible to do backups on a weekly or monthly basis.
The back-up of the data is encrypted with AES 256-bit encryption that protects your data from being stolen. In the settings you can choose whether truBackup to make backups when connected to 3G or only when connected to Wi-Fi.
The only flaw of the app is that you can't sync it with Google Drive (for now). Developers are aware of this problem, and they are working on an update that will fix this issue.
