Android backup and restore

- [Instructor] Making sure a device has a good backup is a great way to make sure no matter what happens, lost phone, stolen device, or just an upgrade, you're prepared to get fully back up and running. Let's make sure on our Android device that backups are set up. Here on my Android device, I will swipe up, and again, in the bottom right corner I will select the icon for account settings. This time I'll scroll all the way down to system and select the system. Select Advanced, and Backup. Here you'll notice my backup is turned off. By default, when I signed in as the Google user, that would be on. Let's turn the Google Drive backup on. You see my account, everything it's waiting to back up.
