If the use of a smartphone is still unusual for you, then the synchronization function in it will surprise at all. Synchronization is needed to duplicate information from the phone to the virtual environment: an electronic disk, cloud storage, any application. Imagine that you have taken all files, passwords and contacts from the phone and simply copied them to any carrier - you just produced synchronization if we talk like a simple language. We will try to understand synchronization in this article.
What is the synchronization for what
Anyone is not immune from the loss or theft of the smartphone. The phone now contains the most important for the user: all contacts and photos, important information in applications and notes. In order not to lose your files when damaging, theft or failure in the phone system, you need to periodically perform synchronization - copying the entire contents to your personal virtual disk. The contents of the disk will only be available to you and anyone more.
Thus, you can restore all the data on another device, or on your own smartphone after cleaning it. Not only photos, themes and phone settings, but also contacts, passwords are restored.
How to independently synchronize the phone
All the necessary tools for synchronization already have in your smartphone - it remains only to configure them correctly. If you use Apple products, the synchronization will be called "icloud" and it is already configured on the phone. You can only change it a bit by going to the appropriate section in the settings. In Andriod smartphones, everything is more complicated.
First go to the settings of your phone through the tray or through the menu. To do this, click on the gear icon.
In the menu that opens, find the section "Cloud and Accounts". On the old versions of the Android, it can be called "Backup and Reset".
The "Samsung Cloud" field and there is a section on the synchronization of your data. Go to it.
If you are in this section for the first time, then read the information window and click "Start" on the right below.
Now you will find yourself directly in your storage. Here will be the remaining space for synchronization, settings and the election that you synchronize.
Note on the "Data for Synchronization" field. It is here that you decide what to synchronize, and what - no. Move the toggle switch to the right to enable data from these applications to synchronization.
Now lift the look just above and click on the backup settings. If you turn the "Automatic Archiving" toggle switch, then synchronization will be performed independently without your participation, which is quite convenient.
Below you will see several more partitions that you can choose or cancel for synchronization. Turn the sinks.
In the upper line, there is a special column to indicate the remaining space on your cloud. Click on it to see more.
Here are conveniently broken sections so that you can see how many places occupy each of them.
How to make a phone recovery by synchronization
If you used to synchronize according to the "from the phone to the cloud" scheme to store all the electronic data, then, in case of problems with your smartphone, you need to synchronize the reverse "from the clouds to the phone." So you restore all lost data.
Go to the synchronization section on your phone and find the "Restore" section.
Here you can choose what you want to restore that - no. Just put ticks near the sections you need. After that, click "Restore".
All files will be immediately restored. Do not forget that you will need an internet connection.
In your contacts will all the old rooms in the gallery - pictures, will also be restored calendars, passwords, alarm clocks. It is very convenient when you have to configure the phone from scratch.
