Backing up your mobile device to Acronis Cloud

A mobile backup is your guarantee that data on your mobile device is safe and can be recovered in case of corruption or loss. You can also use the backup to transfer your personal data from your old smartphone to a new one. Refer to Acronis Mobile for details.

To back up your mobile data to Acronis Cloud:

  1. Start Acronis Mobile.
  2. Tap the plus icon to create a new backup. Note that this step does not occur the first time you back up your mobile device.
  3. Select Acronis Cloud as a backup destination.
  4. Sign in to your Acronis account.
  5. Select the data categories that you want to back up, or tap Confirm if you want to back up all of them.
  6. Allow Acronis Mobile to access to your personal data.
  7. [optional step] Enter a password to encrypt the backup and protect it. Otherwise, tap Skip Encryption.
  8. Tap Start Backup.

When the backup is complete, your data is uploaded to the secure Acronis Cloud. If you want data changes (for example, new photographs) to be backed up automatically, make sure the Continuous backup setting is turned on. If this setting is turned off, new data is backed up only when you tap Back up. Refer to Mobile app settings for details.
