I have always considered myself to be a meticulous and organized person. And in a long time, I did not feel that backups were important things, and worth the effort.

Sometimes, people will make mistakes, and delete important files. But that’s not my mistakes. However, a one big accident happened to me and completely change my stance on backups.

You are storing a lot of important files on your computer, or mobile phone and an accident happened, your data could be gone forever. If you are using an Android device, lost data is the last problem could happen to you, by using a backup tool.

These backup tools are very easy to use, to avoid losing your important data on your Android device, such as contacts, SMS messages, photos as well as video. Here are a few of the best free Android backup that you could download and use right now.
