Never Loose Important Data Again on Android!

If you are using an Android device, this post will change your life for the better.

Make sure you have a Google account, and if ever wondering what's this! This is an account associated with Gmail and other popular Google services like YouTube and the Google PlayStore of course.
Android devices usually require a Google account at startup, just log in your account and save yourself from misery in case your phone dies, get stolen or anything that could damage your personal data.

On Android version 5.0(Android Lollipop) and above, your device will prompt you of a google account that was synced with your device after a reset so make sure to never forget it. The startup menu cannot be bypassed as you might have done before(on older versions of Android).

Before talking forever about things you might haven't seen in your life let's discuss a serious matter that almost every individual come across, Loss of data.

Okay, Google claims to be the giant who can keep your data in a safe place(Coined the Cloud) and lets you access it wherever you are and whenever you please.
What Google offers its users is to save anything from photos, videos, music, and even those important documents closest to your heart.

This is how everything works

If A Google account is set up in your phone, sensitive data like photos, videos, contacts, and of course WhatsApp chats, and many more are synchronized to your account and can restore then at any time you please, as you have guessed.

Google photos:



This app enables you to backup your captured moments to the cloud. You can enable the app to sync your data automatically but be forewarned that data charges will apply.

Contacts: 



This app will synchronize your contacts to your account also, but here you have to manually add them. Next time you add a new contact, choose Google account. If your contacts are currently on the phone, you can import them to the Google account.

Google Drive:



Before ever start wondering, what about those documents I never want to break apart with!.
Okay, some files cannot be synchronized automatically and if this is ever the case you need; just upload them manually. The catch is you only have 5GB of free space.


WhatsApp Chats and others:



WhatsApp happens to be so important to you, you can enable a backup plan for it too. WhatsApp lets you back up your data to Google Drive; so you'll need a google account for all this to be possible. It's not the Facebook-owned company alone that has the feature but more apps are doing it recently. WriterPlus and Evernote are note-taking apps that have the feature.
