Before resetting your phone or upgrading to a new device, it is important to back up your data so you don’t lose anything important. Here are the best ways to back up a Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro:
Table of Contents
Using Samsung Cloud
- Open the Settings app and tap on “Cloud and accounts”
- Tap on “Backup and restore”
- Toggle on “Back up data”
- Tap on “Back up data” and select which data you want to back up (contacts, photos, etc.)
- Tap “Back up” to start the backup process
Using Smart Switch
- Download and install Smart Switch on both your computer and Galaxy J7 Pro
- Connect your phone to your computer using a USB cable
- Open Smart Switch on the computer and select “Backup” to back up data from your phone
Using Google Account
- Go to Settings > Accounts
- Tap on your Google account
- Enable syncing of contacts, calendar events, photos and other data
I recommend backing up to both Samsung Cloud and your computer for an extra layer of protection.
Restoring Data to the Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro
If you get a new phone or reset your Galaxy J7 Pro to factory settings, you can restore your backup with these steps:
Using Samsung Cloud
- Open Settings and tap on your Samsung account
- Tap on Samsung Cloud > Restore data
- Select which backup data you want to restore
- Tap “Restore” to download the data to your device
Using Smart Switch
- Install Smart Switch on your new phone
- Connect the new phone to your computer via USB
- Open Smart Switch on the computer and select “Restore”
- Select the backup file you want to restore from
- Click “Restore” to transfer the data
And that’s how you easily back up important data on your Galaxy J7 Pro and restore it later! Be sure to back up regularly to avoid losing photos, contacts, and other information.
