Description

Restoid gives you complete control over your app backups through a clean, modern, and simple user interface. Powered by the open-source "restic" engine, it's built for users who demand robust, encrypted, and deduplicated backups.

Root access is strictly required to read and write private application data directories.

Features:
* Restic-Powered: Leverages the speed, security, and efficiency of restic for local, deduplicated, and encrypted backups.
* Selective Backup: Choose exactly which user-installed applications you want to save.
* Granular Control: Granularly select what to include for each app: APK files, user data, device-protected data, external/OBB, or media files.
* Flexible Repository Management: Create and manage repositories across native restic backends: Local directory, SFTP, REST server, and Amazon S3/MinIO.
* Snapshot Management: Easily browse historical backup snapshots, view details of what was backed up, and forget old data to save space.
* Surgical Restore: Restore entire apps completely, or just specific parts (like restoring only app data without overwriting the APK).
* Automated Schedules: Set up recurring backups with customizable intervals and trigger conditions (battery, charging, and network status).
* Downgrade Protection: Prevents you from accidentally restoring an older app version over a newer one.

What’s new (0.6.5)

* Fixed a restore issue where external data directories had incorrect permissions
* Added a biometric prompt before enabling the "Require app unlock on start" setting
* Fixed the operation progress finish screen so it is now scrollable
* Lowered minSdk to 29 (android 10)
