Hi!

I'm going to wipe data and cache and I need to make a app + data backup without root.

Two only method I know are hellium and adb backup.
In the last device I owned Hellium doesn't work properly (I lost most apps and data). And using adb backup I'm not sure if it works perfectly or if it will improve device smoothness.

Do you recommend me a good way to backup apps with their data?

Thanks in advance.

Hello


Since you posted this in the Samsung S8 section, non whithstanding your signature, i am going to assume you have an S8.
I was wondering the same thing.

Would SmartSwitch not fullfil your backup needs?

Yes, I have a S8. I thought I posted it in the questions and answers forum.

I didn't know that with Smart Switch we can full backup apps and data and not only transferring them to a new Samsung device.
I hope that backups are encrypted.
