  One of the ways in which Android 6.0 (API level 23) and higher helps ensure a good user experience

  is by automatically backing up app data to the cloud. The system performs this automatic backup

  Users frequently invest time and effort to configure apps just the way they like them. Switching

  to a new device can cancel out all that careful configuration. Devices running Android 6.0 and

  higher automatically back up app data to the cloud. The system performs this automatic backup

  for nearly all app data by default, and does so without your having to write any additional app

  code.

<p>When a user purchases a new device or resets their existing one, they might

expect that when Google Play restores your app back to their device during the

initial setup, the previous data associated with the app restores as well.  By

default, that doesn't happen and all the user's accomplishments or settings in

your app are lost.</p>

prior to 6.0 (API level 23), app data is not restored by default, and all the user's accomplishments

or settings in your app are lost.</p>

<p>For situations where the volume of data is relatively light (less than a

megabyte), like the user's preferences, notes, game high scores or other

stats, the Backup API provides a lightweight solution.  This lesson walks you

through integrating the Backup API into your application, and restoring data to

new devices using the Backup API.</p>
