    Settings app
    .
  2. Navigate:
    System
     >
    Backup

    Backup by Google One
     switch to turn on or off.
    If disabled, existing backups are deleted from Google's servers.
  4. To change accounts, tap
    Account storage
     then tap the preferred Google™ (Gmail™) account.
    You can also tap

  • Backups can't be restored from a higher Android™ version onto a device with a lower Android version.
  • When a Google account is added to your phone, previous backups are restored. This can be done by adding an existing Google account to your already active phone or by signing in to the same Google account while setting up your new or reset phone.
