Pros and cons of Backup Assistant app for iPhone and iPad
Backup Assistant app good for
I used this to bring back my contacts from a non-smart phone onto an iPhone and it worked perfectly
Ive been using this app since 2004 and have always found it very reliable.
Before I had a smartphone and used "feature phones", I used this app. The iPhone 5c was my first smartphone that I bought Spring 2014. VZW Backup Assistant app provided a seamless transition to downladijg my contacts onto that iPhone. Now I have an iPhone SE (I prefer smaller form factors) and once again, I havent had a problem.
I definitely recommend this app to anyone with Verizon.
Some bad moments
I am so frustrated!! No matter what I do to try and get the access code it wont send me it. I tried to turn off the wifi, reinstalling the app, restarting my phone, etc etc. STILL DOESNT WORK. Tried to send the code the my friends phone and BAM it works in 2 seconds. And then I end up getting all of my friends contacts... please fix this I need my contacts from my old phone... Why wont it just send me the goddamn access code?!?!?
App wont connect to network, says it cant connect. Please fix!
Someone elses Apple ID shows up when I go to update app. Ive tried everything! Whats going on? Please fix this problem. I need to backup as I use for business.
I ran it, and it gave me hundreds of old, inaccurate contacts that I had deleted from my phone over the course of several years. There is no way to reverse this app, and now I dont know which numbers are accurate anymore.
It states its for I phones. After I downloaded it,it said Im not linked with Verizon..
I used Backup Assistant to do my regular quarterly Backup. When finished my entire contact list was scrambled. Info for each contact contains info from other contacts. Beware!!!
