Titanium Backup adds Google Drive support [root users]


Google Drive is fresh off the oven. That did not stop developers from getting it baked into their apps, though (even without an official API available. Titanium Backup has just updated their popular application with Google Drive support, and now you can send your backup straight to Google’s servers (PRO users).

The developer was able to do this by using the Google Docs API, as Google Drive is pretty much an improved Google Docs. It just has sync and more functionality.

It will be great to see more services work along with Google Drive. The cloud storage service will definitely play a big part in Android users’ life, as do most Google services. Everything will probably become much more accessible once the official API is used.

Do remember that this specific application requires root access, so it is not for everyone. It is mostly used by people who tend to format reset their devices often (like ROM flashers). It saves all your app, data and settings in order to provide for a much smoother and faster experience.

The app is also compatible with Box.net and Dropbox, for those that prefer one of the other popular cloud storage services. Just head over to the Google Play Store and get your update to get started! And just out of curiosity, how many of you save their backups in the cloud?
