You could try integrating Evernote with Remember. Troy's suggestion for open format backup options was for other non-app backups - like SMS/MMS backups (which have open format options with the right third-party backup app), contacts, documents, photos and music.Īpp backup of native apps is only possible with Link, and access to that backup outside of restoring to the same device, or another BB10 device with the same BBID, is simply not possible. Link backups don't offer backup format options.

They can't run on any other OS - not Android, iOS, Windows, MS-DOS, Sailfish. Thanks again for your help.Native Blackberry apps (such as the Remember app) only run on BB10 phones. I am lost! How do I make an open-format backup? I'm getting a Pixel 3a XL and my hope is to move that app to the Pixel. When I used the backup/restore option in Blackberry Link, I did not see an option for a backup in open, unencrypted formats.

I backed up my BBQ10 to my windows laptop in hopes of accessing a Blackberry app called Remember. Link backups are ALSO worth having for the purposes of restoring paid apps to another BB10 phone and saving app data and settings, but Link backups are utterly useless for getting access to your data in any other manner than restoring it to a phone, so you need the additional steps of making open-format backups of that data in case you need to move to a different platform or access your data in the event your phone breaks or is lost/stolen. I've been advising people, especially those still using BB10 or even BBOS, for years here to make backups of their data in open, unencrypted formats that an be accessed in other apps or imported into other apps/services. You cannot open those files with any other app, and you can't dig into the data or export it in any way from the backup file -you can only restore it do another (same or similar BB10) device. It has improved Blackberry email and MMS file names.That is a BlackBerry Link backup, and so you need Link to restore it to another device, but Link backup files are encrypted and rely on BB servers being available in order to restore it. Meanwhile, saved messages will be transferred into a separate Saved Email Messages folder. This application extracts all sent and received email messages into a message folder. This software does not require technical knowledge. These can then be imported into Hotmail, MS Excel, or MS Outlook. It converts this extracted data into CSV, VCard, or ICAL formats. The Blackberry Backup Extractor can debug information, and inaccessible data. It can also get lost app files, and saved games. It also does not require installing Desktop Manager. The software runs on Windows, OS X, and Linux.

These come from the Blackberry IPD backup files that are made using the Blackberry Desktop Manager. The Blackberry Backup Extractor allows its users to recover their data-Emails, contacts, SMS messages, notes, or calendar events.
