A sealed backup your phone writes to a folder you can see.

Android app only, for now

How it works

It is on by default. About twice a day, when you open the app, your phone writes a sealed backup to Documents/AbabilX, or to a folder you choose. Photos and files are stored once and reused.

Restore

After a reinstall or a fresh start, AbabilX finds the backup and brings back your chats, photos, call log and settings.

The backup’s key is held by our server and the file by your phone. Together they open it, so this backup is not end-to-end encrypted. View-once and timed photos, files the sender did not allow saving, and locked chats' files are never included.
