Your phone’s memories, safe on your own PC.
DroidVault backs up your texts, photos, contacts, call log, and calendar from your Android phone straight to your Windows PC — over your own Wi‑Fi, without touching the internet.
Windows 10/11 desktop app · free Android companion app (Android 8.0+; photo & video backup requires Android 13+) · one-time purchase — no subscription.
Three steps. About two minutes.
No cables, no drivers, no account setup. If your phone and PC share a Wi‑Fi network, you’re ready.

-
Back up over Wi‑Fi
Your phone sends messages, photos, contacts, and more directly to your PC over your local network. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
The things on your phone worth keeping.
DroidVault stores your backup in a local database on your PC, then lets you browse it all inside the desktop app — like your phone, but on a big screen.
Messages & MMS
Every text conversation, complete with the photo and video attachments people sent you — organized by contact, just like on your phone.
Contacts
Your full address book — names, numbers, and details — saved safely, so a lost or broken phone doesn’t have to mean losing your address book.
Call log
Your complete call history — who called, when, and for how long — browsable and searchable on your PC.
Calendar
Calendar events come along too, so your appointments and reminders are part of the same safe, local record.
Photos & videos
The pictures and videos on your phone (up to 50MB per file) are copied to your PC as the original files — no recompression, no upload, no monthly storage fee. Requires Android 13 or newer.
Flexible exports
Export a whole conversation as readable HTML, as CSV for spreadsheets, or as plain TXT — files you own, in formats anything can open.
Stop paying rent on your own memories.
Cloud storage bills you every month — forever — to hold photos and messages that were always yours. DroidVault flips that: pay once, back up to the PC you already own, and keep your life where it belongs. With you.
- $0/month Your PC already has the storage. There’s nothing to lease.
- Pay once One purchase. No plans, no tiers, no “your subscription is expiring” email.
- Yours for good Real files on your own drive, in open formats anything can read.
Your data stays home.
Most backup apps route your life through someone else’s servers. DroidVault doesn’t have servers. Your phone talks directly to your PC over your own Wi‑Fi network, and that’s the whole trip.
- No cloud, everBackups travel device-to-PC over your local network and are stored only on your computer. Nothing is uploaded to us or anyone else.
- No account, no sign-upThere’s nothing to register and no password to invent. Pair with a QR code and you’re done.
- You own the filesYour backup lives in a database on your PC. Browse it in the app, export it whenever you like, keep it forever.
Honest answers to fair questions.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Your phone connects directly to your PC over your local Wi‑Fi network, and your data travels only between those two devices. There is no cloud service, no server, and no account. Gigadyne never sees, receives, or has access to your backups.
What exactly does DroidVault back up?
SMS text messages, MMS messages (including photo and video attachments), contacts, your call log, calendar events, and the photos and videos stored on your phone (up to 50MB per file; requires Android 13 or newer). Everything is saved to a local database on your PC, where you can browse it in the desktop app.
Does it back up RCS chats?
No — and honestly, no backup app can. Android does not make RCS chats accessible to third-party apps, so this is an industry-wide platform limitation, not a DroidVault one. Standard SMS and MMS messages back up completely.
What do I need to run it?
A Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC for the desktop app, and an Android phone running Android 8.0 or newer for the free companion app. Messages, contacts, call log, and calendar back up on Android 8.0+; photo and video backup requires Android 13 or newer. Both devices need to be on the same Wi‑Fi network during a backup.
Do I need a cable to connect my phone?
No cable, no drivers. The desktop app displays a QR code and a pairing code; scan the QR code with your phone’s camera app (or type the pairing code into the companion app), and the two devices connect directly over your Wi‑Fi network.
What formats can I export to?
CSV, HTML, and TXT. You can export an entire conversation as a readable HTML page, as a CSV file that opens in any spreadsheet, or as plain text.
Is there a subscription?
No. DroidVault is a one-time purchase — no subscription and no cloud storage fees, because there’s no cloud. The Android companion app is free. DroidVault is coming soon to the Microsoft Store, with the free companion app coming to Google Play.
Keep what matters. Keep it home.
DroidVault for Windows and the free Android companion app are coming soon to the Microsoft Store and Google Play.
