Also back up APKs of apps that have no data or are above quota
This should also affect apps that have other errors during the backup
process, but it does not affect apps that opt-out of backup completely.

Seedvault

Build Status

A backup application for the Android Open Source Project.

Features

  • Backup application data to a flash drive.
  • Restore application data from a flash drive.
  • User-friendly encryption using a mnemonic phrase (BIP39).
  • Automatic daily backups that run in the background.

Getting Started

  • Check out the wiki for information on building the application with AOSP.

What makes this different?

This application is compiled with the operating system and does not require a rooted device for use. It uses the same internal APIs as adb backup which is deprecated and thus needs a replacement.

Permissions

  • android.permission.BACKUP to back up application data.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS to retrieve the available storage roots.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_USB to access the serial number of USB mass storage devices.
  • android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to change system backup settings.
  • android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES to re-install apps when restoring from backup.
