Back up and restore
Content types that can be backed up using Samsung Cloud
Note:Individual files over 1GB will not be uploaded.
Backing up your data is a little different than syncing (
"https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00060641/" ) . When you back up, you save your device's
files to the cloud, so they can be redownloaded later. These files won't automatically appear on your other
devices unless you manually restore them. Syncing, on the other hand, automatically adds updated information
to a device.
Below are some apps on your phone or tablet that support the back up and restore feature. We've also listed
what kinds of data will be backed up from these apps:
Call logs: Call and message history•
Clock: Alarms, world clocks, and timers•
Apps: Installation files and app settings•
Calendar: Events and tasks saved on your phone or tablet•
Messages: Enhanced messages, multimedia messages, and text messages•
Contacts: Contacts, email addresses, and business cards saved on your phone, tablet, or USIM•

Display settings (your default ringtone won't be backed up)
