Google Play Release: v3.1.3 Announcements • Yandex cloud support is now removed as its WebDAV implementation seems to be broken from server side for many users. Please switch to another cloud service. • Backup of symlinks in app data is not supported anymore due to the backup tools/format Swift Backup uses currently. This may change in future updates. Sorry all Termux/Andronix users. Changes since v3.1.2 • Messages: Alpha support for MMS/RCS backup (Feedback needed) • Messages/Calls: Added setting to change the encryption type • Apps: App backup now includes additional data like Battery Optimization mode*, Magisk Hide state for the app along with granted special access permissions* like Notification access, Usage access, Install unknown apps, DND access, VPN activation, Bind widgets, etc. • Apps: Added option to switch Battery Optimization mode* of an app (Optimize/Don't optimize) in the apps list long click dialog • Apps: New filter modes 'Updated' system apps, 'Launcher apps' • Apps: New sort modes ‘Date used’, ‘Backup size’ • Apps: Added text in apps list that shows information according to current sort mode of the list. Eg. Install date is shown if the list is sorted by ‘Install date’. • WebDAV syncing: Improvements in authentication handling, User now sees a proper instruction dialog when folder creation is not allowed at the root of some Synology NAS devices. • Added Turkish translation • Incompletely translated languages are now hidden by default. Go to languages and use the option in 3-dot menu to unhide them. • Other improvements and fixes *May work only on AOSP/Pixel based ROMs and not on MIUI, OnePlus Oxygen OS, Samsung One UI, etc. How do I try out app labels? 1. Activate test mode: Go to app Settings > About > Tap ‘Version’ 7 times. 2. Restart the app using Settings > Restart app. Note: Please don’t request anything related to labels at this time. Labels are still a work in progress. In future updates, you’ll be able to use labels in Schedule and you can also create your own highly flexible backup/restore configuration like a boss. Please be patient as these are huge changes and will roll out when both ‘labels’ and ‘configurations’ are done. No eta.
