VitaBackup is a minimal, user friendly backup tool for the Playstation VITA. VitaBackup gives the user 100% flexibility on what they want to back up on their device.(Please look at editing backup config below).
Currently the way it works is that it packs all the contents of a folder, or file to a single .tar file. After this is done, it adds the .tar file into a .zip file and compresses it if the user selects a level of compression.
Features
- Backup multiple folders/files into archives.
- Restore multiple folders/files into archives.
- Ability to delete backups created by the software.
- Offer 11 levels of compression. (0 being no compression, which is usually recommeneded)
- Select backup location. (ur0:/ or ux0:/)
User guide
VitaBackup gives the user full flexibility on what they want to backup. The user can decide on a name and path in the following format:

Changelog
v2.0
- Fixed bug with app.db not being backed up properly.
- Use sceIo instead of stdio for i/o handling.

- Support files larger than 4GB.
- Add options to delete backup files from the restore menu. (Press cross to select files, then square to delete.)

- Do not put a forward slash at the end if it's a folder.
- Prevent home button and auto-suspend during backup/restore process.
- Only display scroll bar if we have more than 5 files.
- Use the proper enter/cancel buttons depending on your device's region. (JP uses the "Cross" button to cancel items)
- Backup archives have their timestamps separated by a '-'. (Example: some_file-2018-02-08.tar)
