Backup notification even though backup is disabled #60

Open J70P opened 2 years ago

J70P commented 2 years ago

As I wrote in another issue, I was playing around with the backup functionality (it seems to be broken somehow, so I disabled it again), now the backup notification appears at irregular intervals, even though backup is disabled again.

In the meantime I uninstalled and reinstalled neutriNote because I think that not only did you see the backup notification, but neutriNote actually made a backup (at least the two files ~neutrinote_app_data.txt and ~neutrinote_settings_data.txt have the same new timestamp) even though I disabled backup.

Those two files are essential to restore the app across installation. Please keep them around. Note that they can be hidden from Settings.

The interval is decided by Android, to prolong battery life and try not to cause too much cpu load on the device.
