Yes, Clickfree Pro works with Android. Here’s what you need, how to set it up, and a few Android-specific tips that make backups smoother.
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Android version | 8.0 or later |
| Connector | USB-C (most phones since ~2017) or Micro-USB (older) |
| App | Free Clickfree app on Google Play |
| Backs up | Photos, videos, contacts |
How to set it up

- Create a free account (internet needed).

Android tips
- Google Photos users: if you’ve deleted photos from the phone after Google backed them up, those exist only in the cloud. Clickfree backs up what’s on the phone.
- Battery optimization can pause long backups — exclude the Clickfree app during the first backup.
- Tablets: Clickfree works with Android tablets too, using the same connectors.
- Samsung, Pixel, Motorola and others follow the same steps; only the permission screens look different.
Perfect for mixed iPhone + Android families
The big advantage over iPhone-only drives is that one Clickfree covers everyone. See Clickfree vs SanDisk iXpand and Clickfree vs Google Photos.
