Description

Describe your suggested feature

Give the option to select certain categories to backup instead of the whole app setup

Other details

When performing a backup and restoring it all app data is moved. Instead I suggest dividing that data into categories example. settings, lists, watch history, extensions,etc.. which user can choose from or choose all. That way I can move watchlist for example from a device to another or lists only for example

Acknowledgements
  • My suggestion is NOT about adding a new provider
  • I have searched the existing issues and this is a new ticket, NOT a duplicate or related to another open issue.
