A backup application for the Android Open Source Project.
I'm using seedvault 11-2.3 on a lineageos 18.1 with nextcloud 3.20.3. Every time the backup runs I get notifications from nextcloud that transfers of seedvault files failed. It's showing that...
Turning off the call-log backup in the backup options seems to only work for the initial backup (triggered manually). The following automatic backup then starts to back up the call-logs...

Android 11 ignores the `allowBackup` manifest attribute for device to device transfers (https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/behavior-changes-11#device-to-device-file-transfer). That means the local backup transport supports it in principle and the apps must support it in...

It would be great to have an SFTP server address + port + folder as a backup location option. Why: 1. Not everyone wants the "weight" of NextCloud.on their server(s)...
[rclone](https://rclone.org) supports many, many backends. From Google Drive (#167) to SFTP (#173, #171) to Seafile (#84, #169). It has multiple programmatic interfaces available, also encryption, if you're in to that....
