Short description
Back up and restore apps, messages, call logs and files locally or in the cloud.
Long description
Swift Backup backs up Android apps, messages, call logs, Wi-Fi networks, wallpapers and folders. Backups go to the phone, an SD card or a USB drive, to 10 cloud drives such as Google Drive, OneDrive and Dropbox, or to the user's own server through WebDAV, SMB, SFTP, FTP or S3-compatible storage.
Root is optional. APKs, messages, call logs, folders and wallpapers back up without root. Root adds app data. Shizuku adds batch restores and app permissions without rooting.
Backups are encrypted on the phone before they are saved or uploaded. App data, messages, call logs and folders use AEGIS-256. APKs, expansion files and wallpapers are not encrypted.
Local backups are free. Premium adds cloud backups for apps and folders, scheduled backups, backup history and protection, app labels and custom configs.
