Comments on Titanium Backup (root needed) for Android

★★★★★ Claude Speed · Oct 7, 2025

Used to be the best app, I used it on nexus 4 back in 2013. Last time I used it was in 2019

★★★★★ Blank · Mar 2, 2025

Still works on Lineage OS 22 (Android 15)

★★★★★ A Google user · Oct 9, 2024

OCT 2024 - Does not back up or restore successfully. Still install because can freeze/thaw and list apps by last update timestamp. Honorary five stars because of the role this app played in the early days of Android.

★★★★★ Joshua P. · Nov 22, 2024

After almost 15 years still the most trusted powerful root tool for any power user. <3

★☆☆☆☆ Anthony Veilleux · Sep 17, 2023

Backups can no longer restore. This app should've been removed from the Play Store a long time ago.

★★☆☆☆ Todd · Sep 14, 2023

This app used to be great, but it hasn't been updated in years. Apps no longer reliably restore on modern versions of Android. I'm looking for a new backup solution that works.

★☆☆☆☆ Carl ??? · Nov 12, 2024

Titanium Backup no longer works on android 13 and newer. Cannot restore apps that use multiple apk's, it will just hang. And any app where their data is restored, will crash as soon as you try opening it. Instead, do the following: 1) install the apk using another way 2) restore the app's data but do not open the app 3) install an app called neo backup and then back up the app using it 4) restore the backup you just made in it. Backup/Restore of calls/sms/mms works.

★☆☆☆☆ David Moore · Jun 27, 2024

It used to be required; now it should be retired. Titanium Backup no longer works on the newest Android version on a Pixel 8 Pro.
