backup android
The backup options screen as documented at https://docs.immich.app/features/automatic-backup doesn't match what v1.143.1 (build 3017) actually displays. Here is the backup options screen from the docs
... and here is a screenshot of the screen in the app itself
In the current version of the app there is no reference on the options screen to either foreground or background backup, and no way to turn either one off or on.
I am trying to set up automatic backup but I need to understand the workflow and the docs are no help. How do I set up backup so that photos are backed up from my phone on an ongoing basis?
