Seedvault

This app was developed by the CalyxOS team, and while Ive been a CalyxOS user for a couple years now and love it, Seedvault has been frustrating and largely useless as a backup/restore tool. The application doesn't backup all your apps and data and the commentary I see online from the design team is that this is a philosophical decision on their part (E.G. those apps are "too big" or have elected not to be part of backup). I was a developer once and I understand the power developers have - some can be quite opinionated and controlling of their users (E.G. The GNOME Foundation) while others take a more pragmatic approach and allow the end user to control their own destiny and philosophy (E.G. The KDE Community). My particular opinion is as the sole owner and user of the my Calyx OS device and all data on it and the data storage device(s) that said data gets backed up to, I should be in sole control of what gets backed up but with Seedvault I'm intentionally obstructed from doing so when the technical capability is available to do it. This is a heartbreaking pity because the Android domain is in dire need of effective backup software that doesn't require root access or a Google account and Seedvault is so close yet so far from being that solution.
