If you then select any one of those, you have the option to delete it (for Android system backups), or also turn off the backup functionality (for WhatsApp). Once clicked, it will show you a list of your backups. Some people are starting to see a new Backups folder in the web interface of Google Drive, just below the Trash in the left navigation pane. Well, if you have then this is definitely for you. But maybe at some point you've wondered where all those backups are and why you can't see them inside Google Drive. Similarly, certain apps like WhatsApp allow you to backup everything (the content of your chats, as well as photos, videos, audio, and documents) to Google Drive too.

This makes it easy to switch from one phone to the next, with restore being possible after you've gone through the initial setup on your new handset.

You may or may not know that if you have an Android device, some of your settings as well as app and game data can be automatically backed up by the system to Google Drive.
