Simply open the app and connect an SSD, USB Flash Drive, or card reader to automatically start backup. Easily back up your photos and videos while preserving their original data.

■Incremental Backup from the Second Time Onward
Newly added photos and videos are automatically detected, reducing backup time from the second time onward.

■View Photos and Videos
Connect an SSD, USB Flash Drive, or card reader to view your backed up photos and videos via the app.

■Restore All or Selected Photos
If important photos or videos disappear from your Android smartphone, you can restore them all from your storage. You can also restore selected photos and videos that you temporarily deleted to free up space.

■Supports Photos and Videos Stored on Internal SD Card
You can also back up photos and videos stored on your Android smartphone's internal SD card.

■Multiple Storage Devices for Even More Reliable Backups
The app now remembers the backup status of each storage device, allowing you to back up to multiple USB storage devices. Backing up photos and videos to two or more storage devices further reduces the risk of data loss. (*3) Even if you delete photos or videos from your Android smartphone to free up space, having multiple backups provides peace of mind.

*1 When deleting photos or videos from your Android smartphone, we recommend backing them up to two or more storage devices just in case.
