How about you let me save the application data for myself and keep it secure on my equipment first, Google? Uff, going through the salvaging process of the data on my near-broken phone is being the most excruciating thing I've done recently because they just won't let you access and save it unless you rely on their cloud... which I might eventually just do, just wished it'd at least be a 100% safe way to get everything, but no, they had to put the decision to be backed up into the applications' hands ;-;
