As-is it made me think this only works with (great) Nextcloud.

@vorburger Thanks for this, initially I thought the same so good to see this confirmed.

I just created https://github.com/beemdevelopment/Aegis/issues/1728 to also cover the backup restoring. Do you know how to restore a backup from https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/backups and import that into Aegis, e.g. when switching to a new phone.

@hofbi I'm glad that you've found this useful. If only @alexbakker or @michaelschattgen would merge this PR? 😆

Yes I do, because I have tested this before Aegis; I've now added 2nd commit that explains this - hope that helps you.
