Phone Content Backup
What is a backup
Backup is the transfer of important data from one location or storage media to another location deemed as safer.
there are some businesses that are completely belt around phone contacts, I have seen people whose business have crumbled just because they lost their phone. phone numbers can be very important, and to such persons, the contact in their phone might even be more important compared to the phone itself.
Why we need a backup
- Our phone might get badly damaged.
- The phone may get misplaced
- We may get robbed of the phone
- we may just buy another phone
Accidentally, our phone could get damaged or crushed beyond recovery and that will put us in a position where we need our contacts back.
We may simply misplace the phone and can't really tell where we dropped it.
Some people get rubbed of their phones and will need to re their contacts. Some cases are not as tragic, the owner my simply buy a better phone but the contacts are in the old phone and may be thinking how to get them transfers in to the new phone.
The good news is, this backup feature is available on 95% of android phones.
