[Feature Request] Granular Blacklist of APK+Data

Open noaho opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, Often there are apps that don't support data backup because of credential integration/device protected data or other reasons eg Signal, Firefox, that I would like to backup the APK for but not backup the data.

There's also apps that use cloud services that I don't want to waste space/time backing up the data, but I do want the app automatically installed on a new phone eg Nextcloud.

I think currently it is impossible to blacklist only the data without blocking the APK?

I could manually create the backup list (whitelist) but then I could possibly miss new apps in the future so that isn't really a solution.

Describe the primer solution Blacklist should have two columns - and allow selecting blacklist of Data or APK separately.

Not sure if I understood your issue rightly, but you can already do this.

In a schedule, beyond the custom and block lists, there are already a number of other options. Specifically, you can select if you only want to backup the apk, the data, protected data etc.

You can also select if you want the apks, their data or both when restoring manually.
