Google Drive Backup allows you to securely save your app data to your personal Google Drive account. This helps protect your information if you change phones, reinstall the app, or accidentally lose your local data.

Your backup is stored in your own Google Drive account, and only you can access it through your Google account.

The backup includes all the app data required to restore your information exactly as it was at the time of backup, excluding settings.

• Records and entries
• Categories and customizations
• Profiles and accounts excluding custom profile image

Files that are not managed by the app (such as photos, videos, or documents stored elsewhere on your device) are not included.

Your backup is stored in a folder "BackUp-Day-To-Day Expenses" with the name "day-to-day-expenses_backupfile" inside your Google Drive account.

Yes. You must sign in with a Google account to create or restore backups.

Make sure you use the same Google account that was used when the backup was originally created.

1. Open the app. 2. Go to Settings. 3. Tap Backup & Restore. 4. Select Backup to Google Drive. 5. Sign in to your Google account if prompted. 6. Wait until the backup completes successfully.

Do not close the app or disconnect from the internet while the backup is in progress.

The app helps remind you to keep your data protected by indicating when it's time to create a new backup.

A small red dot appears on the Backup button in the top app bar when it has been more than 1 day since your last successful backup. This is simply a reminder that your current backup may no longer include your latest changes.

The reminder disappears automatically after you create a successful backup.

If it has been 3 or more days since your last successful backup, the app displays a backup reminder banner.

This banner is intended to encourage regular backups so that, if you ever need to restore your data or move to a new device, you'll have a recent copy of your information.

The banner will disappear once a new backup has been completed successfully, or you can choose to dismiss it.

Your data can change frequently. Creating regular backups helps ensure that your most recent information is available if you:

• Change to a new phone.
• Reinstall the app.
• Reset your device.
• Lose or damage your device.

The app's reminders are designed to help you maintain an up-to-date backup without requiring you to remember manually.

Yes. The reminders are recommendations and do not prevent you from using the app.

However, if you choose not to create regular backups, any changes made after your last backup will not be available if you later need to restore your data.

Yes. By default, each new backup replaces the previous backup stored for the app in your Google Drive. This helps keep your backup up to date and avoids unnecessary storage usage.

1. Install the app.
2. Click on find backup button.
3. Sign in with the same Google account used for the backup.
4. The app will fetch the backup file from your signed in account.
5. Click on restore and wait for the process to complete.

After the restore is complete, your app data will return to the state it was in when the backup was created.

Yes.

Restoring a backup replaces the current data in the app with the data from the selected backup.

If you have important current data, create a new backup before restoring an older one.

Yes.

As long as:

• You install the app on the new device.
• You sign in using the same Google account.
• Your backup still exists in Google Drive.

You can restore your data on the new device.

No.

Backups are linked to the Google account that created them. If you sign in with a different account, the app will not be able to find your existing backup.

If the backup is permanently deleted from your Google Drive account, it cannot be restored.

Make sure you do not remove the app's backup data unless you no longer need it.

Possible reasons include:

• You're signed in with a different Google account.
• No backup has been created yet.
• The backup was deleted.
• Your internet connection is unavailable.
• Google Drive services are temporarily unavailable.

Try signing in with the correct Google account and ensure you have an active internet connection.

Yes.

An active internet connection is required to upload backups and download them during restoration.

A stable Wi-Fi connection is recommended for the best experience.

Yes.

Your backup is stored in your personal Google Drive account. Access to the backup requires your Google account credentials.

The app only accesses the backup files that it creates for backup and restore purposes.

No.

Uninstalling the app removes only the local data stored on your device. Your Google Drive backup remains available unless you manually delete it from your Google account.

Before moving to a new phone:

1. Create a fresh Google Drive backup.
2. Verify that the backup completes successfully.
3. Install the app on your new phone.
4. Sign in using the same Google account.
5. Restore your backup.

This ensures a smooth transfer of your app data.

Free up space in Google Drive (delete unwanted photos or videos), then try backing up again.
