I saw a post from Motorola Forum the other day. A Moto user bought a Moto G5, and he backed up the MotoG4 phone to some software previously. While he tried to restore the data of the Moto G4 phone to his computer, he found that no data were in the backup list, and then he tried to restore his Moto G4 to factory settings. But he still could not find the backup after all. So he wondered how to restore Motorola backup.
When I saw this request, there's a smile in my eyes. Now, I decide to write a post to present a tool that is easy to back up, easy to find, and easy to restore Moto backup. In addition, 6 other programs or services will be introduced for reference. Are you looking forward to it like him?

Each time you purchase a new Motorola phone, data transfer is troublesome often. In order to prevent data loss, you can choose Motorola Migrate to help you out. It supports syncing photos, video, contacts, call logs and text messages from old Moto phone to a new Moto wirelessly. Besides, it is suitable for general Android phones (Android 2.2 or above).
1. Find a phone (Andorid or iOS) to save your Motorola phone data. Then download, install and open Motorola Migrate program on two phones. Later, set your Moto and the other device as the source and target phones respectively.
2. Get your two smart phones connected by scanning the QR code. Connect your two mobile via Wi-Fi (on the same Wi-Fi network).
3. Then sync all the data from your Motorola to the other phone for Moto backup. After the completion, tap "Exit" to finish the transfer.
Tips: You can also create a connection between two phones by using mobile hotspots.
Many Motorola or other Android users are not unfamiliar with Google Drive. Just recently, this software has launched an upgraded version and its name has also been changed, which is called Google one.The upgraded version owns almost the same functions as the previous one, but it has more storage space with being paid a certain fee.
1. Unlock your Moto to go to Settings > Backup & reset > Back up my data.
2. Toggle on "Back up my data" switch. Back to "Backup & Reset" to log in your Google account on backup account field, and tap Back up now.
3. Turn on "Automatic restore" button if you want to restore Moto data next time.
Tips: If you want to restore the Moto phone's backed-up data on your new phone, you can work it out by adding the same Google account to your new mobile. But, the Android version of the new phone must be higher than that of the old one.
If you don't mind the slight changes on the quality of photos and videos, then it is a good idea to use Google Photos. In terms of quality changes, it compresses data while backing up files. It also has a feature that can automatically identify and classify images accordingly.
But, if you want a lossless Moto backup and want to sync data other than photos and videos selectively, the first method is a desirable alternative. By the way, it also needs to log in to your Google account, which is similar to the last method.
1. Unlock your Moto phone. Download and start Google photos to log in with your Google account.
2. Tap Menu on the upper left to go to Settings. Then hit Backup & sync to get your Motorola mobile data to Google Photos account.
3. Sign in the same Google Photos account on PC to get access to the backed-up photos & videos.
Notice: Can't find out the backed-up videos or photos? Please go to Menu > Device folders to get them.
Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant, a multifunctional tool developed by Lenovo, applies to the Lenovo maintenance station whose features are designed to update the ROM, device rescue and prompt online. Users can control Motorola and Lenovo devices through Alexa companion applications.
It is an official tool installed on a personal Windows PC, which is able to help manage the data of smart phones including all Lenovo Android phones, tablets and Moto phones.
1. Download, install and launch Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant to see the intuitive window. Then connect your Moto phone to your computer, and turn on USB debugging on Motorola.
2. Click "Backup/Restore" when the connection is made. Next, choose the data categories you want to back up and tap "Backup" to sync your Motorola data to PC.
Tips: It is recommended that you uninstalled it after use, as many users hold that this app will automatically pop up some program each time you turn on your PC, which may be annoying.
If you have a Mac PC and its Mac OS is 10.7 or higher, then you can take Android Files Transfer as one of the alternative Motorola backup app. But the process it works is a bit slow, so I recommend it at last.
When you connect the device, it will perform automatic recognition for your Android device, and you can manage the files in it by copying, pasting, and deleting data. After launching it for the first time, it will start automatically whenever you connect your Android phone in the future.
1. Download, install and launch this app and connect it to your Mac. (If you have downloaded it before, you can search it from Mac "Finder" or "spotlight".)
2. Select "Transfer files" from the interface, then start Android drive on your Mac.
3. Choose the data from your Moto and sync them to Mac. Later, go to Finder > Devices and tap "Eject" after the completion, and disconnect your Moto phone.
Note: After the connection, if your PC pops up a cue like: "the software cannot recognize the phone", please try to reconnect or restart your Moto. If it doesn't work, please update your Mac system or Android system accordingly.
Want to back up Motorola phone and never worry about data loss then? I believe you have got some inspiration after reading this passage. If you are hesitant about which method to use, I recommend Coolmuster Android Assistant and Coolmuster Android Backup Manager, as they are powerful and reassuring to back up and restore your Moto easily and quickly, and whether judge them from technical level or from user's experience.
