OAndBackupX
Modern fork of the open-source android app and data backup solution oandbackup. It has a modern interface and it supports AES 256 bit encryption out-of-the-box
The OAndBackupX project aims to bring the now outdated android app to the newest design philosophies and to make the app stable for the modern android versions.
This app is in active development and they have already modernized the UI. The efforts to make the app more usable is going on and they are looking for more people to involve and contribute to the project. In particular they are looking for someone experienced in rust, but any kind of contribution is welcomed.
Currently the app is available in their github releases and Izzydroid repos with an f-droid version coming soon.
Try the app.

LineageOS adopts SeedVault as its open source backup solution
For those not familiar with SeedVault, it is an open-source backup app that uses the same internal APIs as adb backup. The application doesn’t need root access, but it must be compiled with the operating system. The backup location is user-configurable, with options ranging from a USB flash drive to a remote self-hosted cloud alternative such as NextCloud. This makes SeedVault a particularly viable option for users who doesn’t want to store their personal data to Google’s proprietary cloud-based storage.

🔵 Android's Root backup solutions:
▶️ 1) Titanium backup pro (paid, closed source)
https://matrixrewriter.com/android/
https://www.titaniumtrack.com/titanium-backup.html
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
Get licence file with PayPal option, don't purchase via playstore, Goolag takes 30% of in-app purchase amount from the developer
▶️ 2) OandbackupX
https://f-droid.org/packages/com.machiav3lli.backup
https://github.com/machiav3lli/oandbackupx
⚠️Warning: oandbackupX may not be stable yet
▶️ 3) cbackup
https://kdrag0n.dev/g/cbackup
🔵 Android's Nonroot backup solution:
▶️ Seedvault
https://github.com/stevesoltys/seedvault
So far it is supported by CalyxOS, GrapheneOS, LineageOS, Crdroid
⚠️Warning not all apps data can be backed up this way
Some apps declare they cannot be backed up in their manifests, so seedvault skips them. It can backup apks though if their data can't be backed up. Split apks backup is not supported (yet?)
In this case, you need SAI
SAI (SAI lets you install and export split APKs) - https://f-droid.org/packages/com.aefyr.sai.fdroid
and custom recovery file manager. Copy app data from /data/data of user apps and save it to local storage, copy them to /data/data when needed. For convenience, create a recovery script to restore data in /data/data. Encrypt them when not needed

What’s in your browser (backup)?
It’s not every day that I wake up thinking about how people back up their web browsers. Mostly this is because I don’t feel the need to back up any aspect of my browsing. Some people lovingly maintain huge libraries of bookmarks and use fancy online services to organize them. I pay for one of those because I aspire to be that kind of person, but I’ve never been organized enough to use it.
In fact, the only thing I want from my browser is for my history to please go away, preferably as quickly as possible. My browser is a part of my brain, and backing my thoughts up to a cloud provider is the most invasive thing I can imagine. Plus, I’m constantly imagining how I’ll explain specific searches to the FBI.
All of these thoughts are apropos a Twitter thread I saw last night from a Chrome developer, which purports to explain why “browser sync” features (across several platforms) don’t provide end-to-end encryption by default.
