The Android app normally costs $5.99, but you can currently install it for free. This way you get rid of ads and annoying in-app-promotions. The backup-app collected 4.5 stars with over 9.000 reviews in the Google Play Store. However, your phone needs to be rooted to backup certain types of data.

These files can be backed up without rooting your phone

If you only need to backup apps, app-data, contacts, short-messages and your call-history, Alpha Backup Pro can be used without root-access on your smartphone. If you also need to back up your system settings, rooting your android-device is a necessity. In either case, you have the option to save your backups locally or upload them into your cloud-drive.
