Continuous cloud backup for Android

Continuous, end-to-end cloud backup for every Android phone and tablet — photos, videos, contacts, and documents. Your data stays safe, recoverable, and guaranteed, or your money back.

Easy Setup

  • Install from Google Play

    Download the Data Deposit Box app from Google Play, sign in, and you’re ready to back up.

  • Grant Access

    Allow access to photos, contacts, and storage when Android prompts. The app only sees what you choose to back up — nothing more.

  • Automatic Background Sync

    Data Deposit Box runs as an Android background service, keeping your photos, videos, contacts, and documents backed up as they change.

Backup Features

  • Continuous Backup

    Our patented technology captures every change the moment it happens — no schedule needed.

  • Photos, Videos, Contacts & Documents

    Back up your full Android content scope — not just photos — alongside your other devices in one account.

  • Wi-Fi or Mobile Data, Your Choice

    Back up on Wi-Fi by default to save your data plan. Switch on mobile data when you need to.

Security

  • End-to-End Encryption

    Your data is encrypted on your Android device before upload and stays encrypted in our data centres — your files stay private, even from other users on your own account.

  • Canadian Data Centres

    Your data is stored in secure Canadian data centres, subject to Canadian privacy laws.

  • Two-Factor Authentication

    Turn on 2FA to protect your account from unauthorized access — even if a password is compromised.

Recovery

  • File-Level Restore

    Restore individual photos, videos, contacts, or documents from the web portal or directly in the app.

  • Point-in-Time Recovery

    Roll back to any previous version of a file within your retention window.

  • Restore to Any Device

    Pull your files down to any device on your account — a new Android, tablet, Mac, PC, or through the web portal. Contacts are stored as standard vCards, so they restore cleanly between Android and iOS.

What Our Customers Say

"I’ve tried xDrive, iBackup, and Connected, and your service is by far the best. I’m especially pleased with the real-time background continuous backup capabilities, and the ability to store multiple versions of files."

James Peacock

Peacock Research

"We recently endured Hurricane Irene, and our office was located in a flooded area. Users were still able to access files, etc. through Data Deposit Box and it was a lifesaver for our company."

Rebecca Tuttle

Luce, Schwab and Kase, Inc

"I used to spend 30+ minutes a day doing a daily backup. Data Deposit Box automates my backup and gives me the peace of mind that my data is secure and current. It’s extremely easy to use and requires only a basic understanding of computers. I highly recommend Data Deposit Box to other Doctors and Health Practitioners."

Dr. Barry Averich

"We were working on a large architectural design project and accidentally lost all the data. Within 15 minutes, we restored everything we had lost via our DDB account. Without DDB, the data loss would have cost us over $8,000 in lost billable time."

LC

Luis Cevada

Kirkor Architects & Planners

"Our power went out and my computer crashed with a file open and unsaved. Three hours worth of work gone! As I headed for the top floor to throw myself out the window I remembered that I back up my data with DDB. I logged into my account, and there was my file in all its wondrous entirety."

Nick Constable

"My two year old hard drive crashed and everything was lost. I got a new hard drive right away and in a matter of minutes all my data was restored from DDB - even an email that I was working on when the hard disk failed!"

Android Backup FAQ

Which Android devices are supported?

Data Deposit Box runs on Android phones and tablets, and supports modern versions of Android.

What can I back up from my Android device?

Photos, videos, contacts, and documents. Pick what you want to include during setup and change it anytime in the app.

How do I install Data Deposit Box on my Android?

Open Google Play, search for “Data Deposit Box”, and tap Install. Sign in with your account, grant the permissions you want, and the app starts backing up in the background.

Does the app back up in the background?

Yes. On Android, Data Deposit Box runs as a background service and keeps backing up new photos, videos, contacts, and documents even when the app isn’t open. You may see a persistent notification — Android requires this for background services.

Can I move my contacts between Android and iOS?

Yes. We back up contacts as standard vCards, so they restore cleanly between Android and iOS — or to any device that reads vCard (.vcf) files.

What happens when I get a new Android phone?

Install the app on your new phone and sign in — your photos, videos, contacts, and documents are restorable from your account, including everything backed up from your old device.
