If you are worried about backing up your WhatsApp files, the good news is that it is already backed up to your phone. The app automatically creates a local backup every night, provided you are connected to a WiFi network and have sufficient storage and battery life. However, cloud backups will protect you only if you lose or break your phone.
To help with this, WhatsApp also has a built-in function to back up all your messages and media to the cloud via Google Drive. It can be scheduled to run automatically every day, week, or month, with an additional option to manually backup whenever you like.
How to backup WhatsApp
Click the three dots in the top right, then Settings.
Click Chats, then Back Up Chat at the bottom.
Configure your WhatsApp backup settings.
At the top of the screen, you'll see when your WhatsApp backup was created, as well as the backup option right away. Make sure to do this on WiFi if possible, as media backup can consume a lot of mobile data.
Below you can choose the Google account you want to back up, duplicate backup, and more. We recommend not backing up videos, as this will eat quickly with Google Drive storage!
Note that you can only backup WhatsApp files with Google Drive at this time. If your phone does not have Google Play services (newer Huawei phones, for example), you may not be able to backup WhatsApp using the method mentioned above. In addition, WhatsApp backups are not kept with full encryption like messages, and they are automatically deleted from your Google Drive account after one year of inactivity.
