Feature description
This is a GREAT App and thanks @Aga-C for the lighting answer to my previous feature request in #223
Since by design, the app has no Internet access, which is a great security and privacy design goal (so no syncing), can we pivot to a Scheduled Backup for History Call Log Feature request ?
Feature description
To enhance this great app I would like to propose a feature :
-
Scheduled Backup the History Call Log
-
Prompt in settings for i.e. hourly, daily, weekly, monthly scheduled backup
-
Prompt in settings for the naming template of backup File i.e. or other custom fields to include in the backup file's name (device model, Device name or model type etc...)
-
Define the Backup Folder in settings so as to grant permission to app (device's storage or SD-Card, and so on)
-
Address logic about whether the next scheduled backup should overwrite the previous one or be added along in folder
-
Optional password/PIN definition in settings to secure the backup file
I may edit this request with examples of other Apps providing usefull designs Scheduled Backups and if they are FOSS, the better !
Why do you want this feature?
It would add seamless:
- Security and recovery by scheduled backup into backup folder
- Privacy when coupled with syncing of the backup Folder : WebDav with Davx5 for example
This would enable syncing in two-steps while aligning with the App's "no Internet by design" policy for the uses cases:
- Backup by having an off device, online backup of the history call log (lost, stolen device)
- Device Transfer: easier switch to a new device (update, change, recovery) by uploading the latest or chosen scheduled / on demand file stored or retrieved from online storage
