Backup and Restore dialog proposal
- The original 'Share or Backup' text is probably not necessary. It describes precisely what they can do but they will work that out soon enough just by clicking on the button so it probably isn't necessary
- This form would allow backing up all three types of data in one action not three.
- The restore option needs to act like a radio button (only one of the two can be selected at once). On my device it opens a screen that allows me to get to Drive or my phone storage. I assume it's similar on other device.
- The Restore button text could change depending on what option is selected (eg 'Restore Documents from')
Additional
- Improve backup & restore wiki page (suggested on #1801)
When you toggle multiple items and press "Share or Backup to...", what happens? Does it create a zip file containing both files? I guess Android allows saving only one file per time with file chooser intent. I might be wrong though.
Ah, i get it. The issue doesn't apply to 'restore' since i suggested you implement the checkboxes like radio buttons - only one can be true. Could possibly do that for the Backup as well.
But i thought you would do the same as you do now.
- Ask the user where they want to save the file(s)
- Prepare the first file
- Upload it
- Prepare the second file
- Upload it
- Tell the user they can sleep easy tonight.
That's not possible?
I could consider implementing this after 3.4 is released (not waiting to 3.5). Could you compile list of necessary strings for this feature so we can send them to translation? (pull request that changes values/strings.xml would be best :-) )
Radio buttons are better for the current implementation. If we ever allow backing up multiple items then checkboxes should probably come back.
