Gain a good habit of a backup.

When it comes to any surprising event, it's always good to be prepared at least to a some degree - thanks to which You can feel comfortable regardless of which way the wind blows. In case of smartphones and computers sometimes You may stumble upon unpleasant surprises, such as app crashes and the like - after all, there is all pretty convoluted stuff under the hood, and sometimes something may don't work the way it should. Unfortunately as a result of those cases it is possible for You to loose something - from Your preferences of using a particular app (reflected in its settings) to the data stored within it. However much You can loose, there is often a need to start from scratch, all over again - which usually is pretty time-consuming.

There is, fortunately, a good workaround invented especially for such cases - and it's called "a backup". Many apps are equipped with its own backup feature, which - when it comes to app crash or any other serious failure - often allows You to easily and quickly restore everything to the point when it all worked the right way. It is often possible to restore both Your preferences and personal data. And sometimes an app may be even smarter: it may backup and restore completely by itself (!), so You don't need to pay any attention to it, even if some crash occurred - the whole thing will be restored in a moment, and You couldn't even tell that anything has happened.

Although Handy has had a backup feature for a long time now, not so long ago it has been significantly improved for You to enjoy the situation described above. So now:

1. Handy will backup itself more often (the more often a backup is done - the less probable is that You'll notice any difference after the app restores itself after possible crash) - ensure that this option is checked: app's settings ➜ Advanced ➜ Enable automatic backup.
2. More things are currently included within the backup: Your current Favorite Articles list and Your preferable app's settings.
3. In case of a crash Handy should restore itself automatically - to the last point when everything has been all right.
4. Regardless of the autobackup interval (how often Handy should backup itself - You can set it up within app's settings ➜ Advanced ➜ Auto backup interval) You can backup the app on demand - just open an article list, tap three dots on the top right and choose "Create auto backup".
