✨ Features

• Restic-Powered: Leverages the speed, security, and efficiency of restic for deduplicated and encrypted backups.
• Selective App Backup: Choose exactly which user-installed applications you want to back up.
• Full Control Over What You Back Up: Granularly select what to include for each app: APK files, user data, device-protected data, external/OBB/media files.
• Flexible Repository Management: Create and manage repositories across native restic backends: Local directory, SFTP, REST server, and Amazon S3/MinIO.
• Snapshot Management: Easily browse backup snapshots, view details of what was backed up, and forget old snapshots.
• Flexible Restore: Restore entire apps or just specific parts (like only app data).
• Automated Schedules: Set up recurring backups with customizable intervals and trigger conditions (battery, charging, and network status).
• Downgrade Protection: Prevents you from accidentally restoring an older app version over a newer one (can be overridden).

⚠️ Requirements

• Root Access: Restoid requires elevated privileges to access app data directories. It uses libsu for robust root command execution.
• Android Version: Minimum SDK 33 (Android 13).
