4.4.5. Device Backups

On your VT AIR device you can enable backups that are automatically synced with the Portal. You can choose between manual backups and automatic backups. You can also check for existing backups. Backups are always encrypted.

Note

This feature is only available with an active connection to the Portal. If your device is not connected/registered with the Portal you cannot use the backup feature.

Device backups

In your Portal you can find the backups under the little info symbol. Here you can download them individually.

You can also directly restore a backup on a different device if you enter the device ID of your device to get the backups. Both devices need to be registered under your account.
