Description

Set backup directory just like Obtanium so you don't have to export and press the "store backup" button every time it backs up because the apps just store the file for you in the directory

would even be better to set the amount of backups allowed max, and directly export each backup to a share menu

    So I have no experience working with Obtanium, I'd appreciate a very simple explanation (or even better diagram) of how it'd work. It's really unclear what you mean by "like obtanium" since I've been away from the Android world for quite a few years 😔

    AFAIK, Obtanium automates the process of updating Flow for those who use it by scanning GitHub releases.

    Oh what i meant is not about the installation what i meant is how it manages backup

    Where first you pick a backup directory, pick backup frequency, and it backs up automatically into said directory in said frequency

    Ah i see, sounds simple enough, but i am more leaning towards google drive integration in general, so i will take PRs for this.

    Hmm... I really think this is needed alongside google since some people like me dont really want google services, especially on degoogled roms that doesnt have any microg

    Or rather label this as "Help Wanted" or maybe even pin this issue
