It's time to move to a new smartphone. I knwo when changing from one Android
smartphone to a newer one I can login to my Google account with the newer
smartphone and data are copied from backup to the new one.
Bit what exactly is copied? I have addtional apps installed having their own
data, f.e. WhatsApp, Firefox, Mail clients. Are these non-Google-apps and
their data also backuped and restored, or do I have to reinstall them
manually?
When I bought a Pixel2 in 2020 I was surprised to find that following the Pixel instructions copied over EVERYTHING from my Motorola G5. Passwords, apps, settings, everything. I regretted not removing the sdcard from the G5 because the Pixel created a new named subdirectory with all that stuff in it and which I am now afraid to delete. Still, I've only used half the storage the Pixel came with. I am most afraid of having to re-do all the app settings (I never leave anything alone), but this fear was groundless.
If all phones are this easy now you should have no trouble.
