Does this app back up my flashcards to the cloud? #5

I was thinking about downloading this app for some revision for a set of test coming up for me. However, I want to be able to access my cards from multiple machines. Will the cards back up to the cloud so therefore I am able to do this?

Unfortunately, this version does not back up your data, you can do it manually by converting your flashcard sets to CSV format.

I hope cloud maintenance and sharing the cards with other people (somewhat similar to Google Keep notes) would be possible one day!

Would it be reasonable to upload text contents and ignore images in cards for now? I am currently planning to use Firebase, if images are uploaded to the storage bucket in Firebase, it can fill up my cloud storage plan quickly with currently active users (with an aver. usage).

Is it possible to use the user's own Google drive cloud space for the backup which they can share with their friends?

Unfortunately, Google Drive API for Android is deprecated. Their recommendation to save app data seems to be Cloud Firestore of Firebase. Dropbox can be another option, need to research the docs for the possibility of sharing files with friends.
