1 Introduction
1.1 What is Acronis Cloud mobile app?

up using Acronis Backup & Recovery and stored on Acronis Cloud. Use your mobile phone or a tablet
to get easy access to all of the backups created on all of your computers anytime and anywhere. This
app also enables you to view and download previous versions of your backed up files. Your data will
always be within easy reach.
Which devices does the mobile app support?
You can install Acronis Cloud on any mobile devices that have iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod) and Android

access.

device.
