Google Drive Backup
Secure cloud backup for your data
🔒 Privacy First: Your backups are encrypted before being uploaded. We cannot
access your data. The backup is stored in YOUR Google Drive, not our servers.
Connecting Google Drive
- Go to Settings → Cloud Backup
- Click "Connect Google Drive"
- A browser window will open
- Sign in to your Google account
- Grant permission to School Management Pro
- You'll be redirected back to the app
School Management Pro only requests access to files it creates - it cannot see or modify your other Google Drive files.
Creating a Cloud Backup
- Ensure Google Drive is connected (green checkmark)
- Click "Backup to Cloud"
- Wait for the upload to complete
- You'll see a success message when done
Backups are stored in a folder called SchoolManagementPro in your Google Drive.
Restoring from Cloud
- Go to Settings → Cloud Backup
- Click "Restore from Cloud"
- Select the backup you want to restore
- Confirm the restore operation
- Wait for download and restoration
Automatic Backup (Coming Soon)
We're working on automatic scheduled backups. This feature will be available in a future update.
