Google's working on a great Android feature to save you from 'storage full' struggles
Android Authority • • technology
Key Points:
- Google is developing an "Automatic backup" feature that allows users to copy photos, videos, and audio from their phones directly to their PCs without using cloud storage.
- The feature is integrated into Quick Share settings and offers options for automatic syncing or manual backup, giving users control over what files to back up.
- Backed-up files remain on the PC even if deleted from the phone, helping users free up phone storage without losing data.
- The transfer likely uses Quick Share technology, enabling offline file transfers between devices signed into the same Google account, with initial support for Windows PCs and potential expansion to other platforms.
- As this feature was discovered through an APK teardown, it may still be under development and is not guaranteed to be released publicly.
