Dont you need root access to get the app private data?

I switched from Microsoft to Google because they advertised as having backup and now I am stuck with Google authenticator without any backup.

The only saving grace for Android was adb backup and restore but Google is shutting that down

You do need root access, unfortunately. Even backing up the filesystem with `tar` is troublesome: https://github.com/dlenski/tetherback

I really hoped Google would have allowed some way to locally make full Android backups by now but I guess that's not compatible with their business model.
