Making a backup in WhatsApp is very simple, a backup serves us so that in case we lose the phone, we want to restore the WhatsApp application or restore the mobile we have the option to recover all our contacts, conversations and multimedia files. It is very important to have backups on our mobile either manually or automated so that they are made from time to time and so we do not run the risk of losing everything we had saved on our cell phones.

How to make a backup in WhatsApp

To make a backup we have to go to the WhatsApp main menu and click on the three dots to open the options menu, in options we go to settings>chat>backup>save to Google Drive. Within these settings we can change if we want to make a backup manually or automatically, where we can choose how often the copy will be made and how we want it to be saved. We recommend making automatic backups and always with the option to backup with WiFi and not with data, because if we are people who have many groups or receive many multimedia files our mobile data will be affected every time we make a backup.
