Where Does Neo Backup Store App Backups?
Neo Backup stores app backups with APKs and data in its backup folder on shared storage. Needs root; schedules run with the device idle.
Last updated
Neo Backup archives Android apps with data to shared storage for rooted phones. Each backup bundles the APK plus app data, with special components for SMS, call logs, and WiFi networks handled separately. Schedules automate nightly runs.
That makes the backup folder the migration unit: copy it whole to the new device. Encryption passwords live outside the backups by design, so losing them bricks the archive. Exact folder names may vary by version; keep the default location unless storage forces a move.

APKs plus app data per backup; needs root. Copy the whole folder for moves. Keep encryption passwords apart from the phone.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move backups to a new phone?
Copy the backup folder to the new phone with identical paths, install Neo Backup with root, and restore per app. Special components like SMS and call logs restore separately from their own entries. Verify one app before batch-restoring everything.
How do I schedule automatic backups?
Enable the scheduler with the device charging on WiFi overnight. Encryption protects backups at rest; keep the password apart from the phone. Split APK and data backups so app updates do not invalidate stored data.
