Zalo allows users to backup messages, helping to protect your data, chat content, and even pictures sent and received. You can even set Zalo to automatically back up messages for seamless recovery whenever needed.
The feature to backup and restore messages is extremely useful if you transfer your phone, reinstall your device, or want to retain all your messages. This functionality is supported on both Android and iOS platforms.
If you're using an iPhone, check out this guide:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| Step 1: |
At the main Zalo interface, click the Menu icon at the bottom right corner. Then tap the gear icon in the top right corner to access Settings, and select Backup and restore messages.
|
| Step 2: |
Here, the date of the last backup is displayed along with the device used and total storage capacity. Click Backup to overwrite the old backup. Confirm by taping Confirm. You will receive a success message with an option to backup photos to Google Drive.
|
| Step 3: |
To backup photos, click Google Drive Account in the Backup photos section. Select an existing account or add a new one and click OK. Enable automatic backups by toggling Auto Backup to the right, then choose your backup frequency like daily, weekly, or monthly, and select the preferred network connection (WiFi or 3G).
|
| Step 4: |
To restore messages from the latest backup, click Restore messages and then on Recover messages. Wait for the recovery process to finalize. Afterward, restart Zalo by clicking Continue to finalize updates.
|
Note: Restoring messages is only possible for those that have been backed up. Messages that were never backed up cannot be retrieved.
Pretty simple, right? Now you can easily backup and restore all messages without any problems!
I wish you successful implementation!
Follow SUSE’s SP7 procedure to enable FIPS mode, reboot safely, verify the active policy, and check whether your compliance requirement calls for validated modules.
Compare YaST and cryptsetup for a new encrypted SLES data volume, choose LUKS1 or LUKS2, and verify unlock and mount behavior safely.
Create, refine, and verify a least-privilege AppArmor profile on SLES 15 SP7, with a clear note on SLES 16’s SELinux default.
Set up RMT on SLES 15, mirror entitled repositories, and verify HTTPS registration and package access from a test client.
Connect SLES 15 to AD with YaST’s SSSD-based logon management, then verify directory lookup, domain login, and Kerberos tickets.
Set up the right Live Patching path for SLES 16.0 or 15 SP7, apply eligible kernel fixes, and confirm what is active without confusing it with a reboot-required kernel update.
Load a custom SLES 15 kernel module without disabling Secure Boot. Match the running kernel, sign the .ko file, enroll a MOK key, and verify loading.
SLES 15 SP5 can migrate online to SP6, but each node must reboot. Use a tested rolling upgrade or blue-green cutover to keep workloads reachable.
Use SUSE’s supported STIG profile to scan SLES 15, test remediation, review remaining findings, and retain assessment evidence.
Trace a failed Cockpit connection through DNS, port 9090, the systemd socket, firewalld, TLS, and login settings using current SUSE guidance.
