  1. Go to Settings → Cloud Sync → Restore.

  2. View details of the latest backup (date, size, stored items).

  3. Click "Restore Data".

To prevent data loss, AI Assistify offers automatic backup configurations.

✅ Available Settings:

  • Enable Automatic Backups – Schedule automatic backups for convenience.

  • Backup Frequency – Choose daily, weekly, or custom intervals.

  • Compression Level – Optimize storage with low, medium, or high compression.

  • Backup Retention – Control how long backups are stored (1 week to 3 months).

  • Encrypt Backup Data (Optional) – Adds an extra layer of security for sensitive files.


🔐 Security & Privacy: Optional Encryption for User Choice

🔒 Encryption is Optional, Giving You Full Control

  • Enabling encryption ensures the highest level of data protection but may take longer to process.

  • Skipping encryption speeds up backups and saves storage space for users who prioritize efficiency.

If Encryption is Enabled:

  • AES-256 Encryption – Your backups are encrypted before upload for extra security.

  • Password Protection – You’ll need your encryption key to restore data.

  • Higher Storage Usage – Encrypted backups take slightly more space due to security layers.

If Encryption is Disabled:

  • Faster Backup & Restore – No encryption means speedier processing.

  • Smaller File Size – Saves storage quota and uploads faster.

  • Still Secure – Data remains protected, but without additional encryption.
