Whether it’s photos, apps, or text messages, backing up your phone to the cloud is one of the most important things you can do to protect your data. No gadget is foolproof, and in the event of a major incident that leaves your device destroyed or unable to turn on, you always want to make sure that as much as possible is secure. Google is giving its backup software for Android a big boost, crushing the current system with a new “Backup by Google One” client.

As first reported by 9to5Google, Backup by Google One streamlines the already existing services you’ll find on Android today. Last summer, Google extended its backup client to all Android and iOS users, whether or not they are subscribed to Google One. This update goes further, rearranging all backups into one space to help make saved data more obvious to users.

This new “Backup by Google One” initiative will combine the already existing menu found in the Standard Settings menu with the control panel available on Google One. Google intends to combine these parameters into a single system page. This will make it much easier to view and manage existing backups, whether they are free or paid customers. Likewise, content that could only be managed from Google One backups, including photos, videos, and MMS messages, will finally be accessible from the Android settings menu by default.

While this change affects phones running Android 8.0 and later for the next several weeks, it does not replace the Google One menu that currently exists. You will still be able to access your backups from the One app or the web client. We’ll have to wait for the feature to arrive on all devices to see how it compares to the current setup.
