Backup Customer Insights

1. this happened for the first time.The app is very good , I am using it to back up my whatsapp PLUS data because the whatsapp+ dose not perform backup ( cloud backup) , the app works fine with me… the only recommendation to the developers , to improve the app interface as to be honest does not reflect how good the app isFor me the main uninteresting moment is the backing up part.

2. It took a little bit more efort to figure out when backing up data from the old phone that there are actually checkboxes in front of every part of WhatsApp chat being backed up (messages, videos, audios, gifs...), and they need to be checked so that every of those gets included in the backup.

3. Incidentally, the same database and media is available directly to you by simply connecting your phone to a computer and navigating to Whatsapp >Media..This app is amazing!!! It backed up ALL my chats, photos, and videos and moved them onto my new phone.

4. A lifesaver!!!Backup for WhatsApp is absolutely the best especially for a seamless transfer of all my messages, photos, videos and memes from my old to new phone.

5. Thank you!!! Load WhatsApp on your new phone, but don't open it.

6. Then open WhatsApp on your new phone and restore everything.

7. suggestion: on the restoring device, remove existing whatsapp folder if already if you want the app to run perfectly at the first run.

8. Load the app on your old phone and backup everything - tick the boxes on the left.

9. Created a zip which when downloaded and opened, it unzips your media files and an encrypted database that you can open only when you uninstall and reinstall What'sapp.

10. After checking all items to be saved in Google Drive, it compressed the files and then nothing happened - nothing was uploaded.

11. Another thing is that it isn't a good implementation to have to give permission to an app like this to Google Drive.
