LineageOS adopts SeedVault as its open source backup solution
For those not familiar with SeedVault, it is an open-source backup app that uses the same internal APIs as adb backup. The application doesnβt need root access, but it must be compiled with the operating system. The backup location is user-configurable, with options ranging from a USB flash drive to a remote self-hosted cloud alternative such as NextCloud. This makes SeedVault a particularly viable option for users who doesnβt want to store their personal data to Googleβs proprietary cloud-based storage.

β οΈWarning not all apps can be backed up this way
Some apps declare they cannot be backed up in their manifests so adb backup, therefore seedvault, skips them
