Note for Russian users Google has suspended Play Store billing system in Russia. Users in Russia will not be able to make any payments. If you have a Lifetime premium plan in Swift Backup, you are unaffected by this. If you have a yearly premium subscription expiring on or after March 10, 2022 and renewal fails due to the billing system suspension, you can contact [email protected] with the details of your Google account that owns the subscription purchase. Premium will be temporarily activated for that account until further notice. New Russian users looking to purchase any premium plan in Swift Backup will not be able to do so until Google resumes Play Store billing system in Russia. Please do not request to support direct payments via other means. I have no time to manage/maintain orders outside Google Play Store. #premium#russia

Google Play release v4.0.3 Google Drive Shared Drives support - You can now upload your backups to Shared Drives (formerly known as Team Drives) in your Google Drive. - For this to work, you need to provide Swift Backup 'Full access' to your Google Drive using the option in 'Settings > Cloud backups > Google Drive access mode'. Once enabled, disconnect and reconnect Google Drive in the app. - Note that after you sign-in Google Drive with 'Full access' in Swift Backup, Google will send you a security notification about Swift Backup having full access to your Google Drive. This is as per their normal practice. Swift Backup will however only access the files created by it regardless of the access mode you select. Parallel uploads/downloads of all parts of an app - An experimental option is available in 'Settings > Swift Labs' to upload/download all parts of an app in parallel. - This should be very useful for cloud services that take some time before executing upload/download of a file. Eg. Google Drive many times takes anywhere between 2-15 seconds to start an upload/download. Executing upload/download of multiple parts of an app in parallel helps with such delays and can save a large amount of time in batch backup/restore from cloud. Other changes - Apps: Performance improvements when using SD Cards / USB Drives as backup storage - Cloud: Fixed duplicate files issue with Mega - Cloud: Some cloud related settings have now been moved from Swift Labs to 'Settings > Cloud backups' - Better handling of low storage space issues - Other minor fixes

Google Play release v4.0.3: Google Drive shared drives support, performance improvements when using SD Cards/USB drives, critical fixes for Mega users. Full changelog in the next message.
