Here's how to ensure your Gmail, contacts, apps, etc. are backed up on your Galaxy Tab S9 FE 5G.
If you need to back up data (e.g., app data, SMS text messages, device settings, etc.) on your Galaxy Tab S9 FE 5G using your Google™ (Gmail™) account, follow these step-by-step instructions.
Google™ backups can't be restored from a higher Android™ version onto a device with a lower Android version.

  3. Tap
    Backup by Google One
    to turn on Switch on or off Switch off.
    If turned off, existing backups are deleted from Google's servers.
